Our hiring checklist

Toilet chip repair in Wenallt, done in place

Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Whether it’s marks on the outside of the pan and chips on the cistern lid, we can typically put it right.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole toilet

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Should you replace it?

A new toilet means a plumber and possibly new flooring, 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 charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Wenallt. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

  3. We sand the repair level.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
