Toilet chip repair in Portmead without replacing anything
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We work on cisterns & lids, pedestals and porcelain, and people most often call us about pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the pan or rim.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

How we price toilet chip repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Should I try a DIY kit 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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Portmead questions
What about a leaking crack?
No. That needs a new toilet. We fix chips and broken pieces.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Portmead and the rest of Swansea. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair leaves it in place. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
