Toilet chip repair at your home in Tan-y-foel
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. We’re frequently asked to fix pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, on cisterns & lids, porcelain and toilet pans.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What toilet chip repair costs
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole toilet
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Porcelain

What else we do in Tan-y-foel
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new toilet means 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. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take one to two hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Ask for a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole toilet, we can price the job without visiting.
Advice
FAQs for Tan-y-foel
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Tan-y-foel and the rest of Gwynedd. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
What about a leaking crack?
No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We repair cosmetic chips and breaks.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
What does toilet chip repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your LL57 postcode.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
