Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

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

About our toilet chip repair in Tŷ Glyn

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Typical jobs include chips on the pan or rim and damage from dropped items, in vitreous china, porcelain and pedestals.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes an hour or two. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

When to call us in Tŷ Glyn

Toilets and cisterns typically get chipped during fitting, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.

Look out for these signs:

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

Comparing quotes

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Who turns up on the day

Choosing a repair company

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace in Tŷ Glyn?

Replacing a toilet needs a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and a matching cistern may no longer be made. A repair keeps the toilet you have. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One visit for most repairs

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

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.
