What we cannot put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • A crack that leaks water
  • A crack through the bowl or trap
  • A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Port Lion

  • Toilet pans
  • Vitreous china
  • Porcelain
  • Cisterns & lids
  • Pedestals

Toilet chip repair in Port Lion without replacing anything

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Our technicians work on vitreous china, porcelain and cisterns & lids, and the jobs we see most are chips on the pan or rim and chips on the cistern lid.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • A fixed quote before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Questions from Port Lion

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Are there extra charges for Port Lion?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you cover Port Lion?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Port Lion and the rest of Pembrokeshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take an hour or two, including clearing up.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Our hiring checklist

How we price toilet chip repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Port Lion, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
