How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes one to two hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We match the colour to the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Advice

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

A new toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why Sain Dunwyd clients choose us

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Signs you need toilet chip repair in Sain Dunwyd

Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Damage from dropped items
  • Chips on the cistern lid
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Pieces knocked off during fitting

What your quote should include

  • If travel is included in the price
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What preparation is included
  • How the room is protected while they work

How to compare quotes

Your questions about toilet chip repair in Sain Dunwyd

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

Are there extra charges for Sain Dunwyd?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire toilet
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

If you’re in Sain Dunwyd and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
