Ynysmeudwy questions

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can a chipped toilet be fixed?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Toilet chip repair in Ynysmeudwy without replacing anything

Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we will tell you if that is what we find. Chips are rebuilt and colour-matched to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Our repair technicians work on vitreous china, porcelain and toilet pans, and the jobs we see most are pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Ynysmeudwy as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

Repair or replace in Ynysmeudwy?

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. Our toilet chip repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Read our pricing.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes an hour or two. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the damaged area is cleaned and dried.
  2. We fill and rebuild missing material to the original shape.
  3. We sand it flush.
  4. We colour-match and finish the glaze.
  5. Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Related advice

When a repair is not the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we work on in Ynysmeudwy

  • Pedestals

  • Damage from dropped items
  • Chips on the pan or rim
  • Marks on the outside of the pan
  • Chips on the cistern lid

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How the colour is matched
  • Who turns up on the day
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ynysmeudwy

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ynysmeudwy use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
