Toilet chip repair in Waen without replacing anything

We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll tell you if that’s what we find. Typical jobs include pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, on vitreous china, pedestals and cisterns & lids.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes an hour or two for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We clean and dry the damaged area.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. The repair is polished so it blends in.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Most customers in Waen get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Related advice

Should you replace it?

A new 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. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

See our prices page.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the toilet, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

FAQs for Waen

Can you repair a chipped toilet?

Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Waen included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What about a leaking crack?

No. A leaking crack needs the toilet replacing. We fix chips and broken pieces.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 normally the cheaper route.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
