How we handle toilet chip repair in The Common
A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll tell you if that is what we find. We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. If you have marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
In and around The Common, older homes can have toilets that are hard to replace like for like. A repair keeps everything matching.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Swansea. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

- Marks on the outside of the pan

- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Repair or replace in The Common?
Replacing a 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. For a rural home like those around The Common, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while toilet chip repair is one trip.
Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in The Common, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
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.
