Porth Teigr questions
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Toilet chip repair at your home in Porth Teigr
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Whether it’s chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan, we can help, on pedestals, porcelain and vitreous china alike.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- The repair is polished so it blends in.

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What we’re called out for in Porth Teigr
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Marks on the outside of the pan
Comparing quotes
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if they find more damage
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How long it needs to cure
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
