How we handle toilet chip repair in Trelydan
Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will say so if we find one. Typical jobs include pieces knocked off during fitting and damage from dropped items, on porcelain, vitreous china and pedestals.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
When to call us in Trelydan
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Signs it’s time to call us include:

- Pieces knocked off during fitting

Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. Repairing the chip leaves it in place. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
