Toilet chip repair in Y Graig, done in place

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you do not need a plumber or a new toilet. We regularly repair cisterns & lids, pedestals and vitreous china, and people most often call us about marks on the outside of the pan and pieces knocked off during fitting.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Y Graig as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace in Y Graig?

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Y Graig: your questions answered

Do you come to Y Graig?

We do. We send a technician to Y Graig for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What areas do you cover?

All of Carmarthenshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

Yes. Chips to the pan, rim, cistern and lid are the most common jobs.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What the surface is made of

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Y Graig. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

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 fails, we can still put it right.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take one to two hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. The glaze is colour matched and finished.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
