About our toilet chip repair in Troedrhiw-gwair
Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we’ll say so if we find one. Our technicians work on pedestals, toilet pans and porcelain, and people most frequently call us about chips on the pan or rim and marks on the outside of the pan.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

When we would advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A crack that leaks water
- A crack through the bowl or trap
- A loose pan or leaking seal (that’s a plumbing job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Toilet pans
- Pedestals
- Cisterns & lids
- Vitreous china
- Porcelain
Should you replace it?
Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and possibly new flooring, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Your questions about toilet chip repair in Troedrhiw-gwair
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
