10 questions to ask before booking

Toilet chip repair in Ynyswen, done in place

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 will tell you if that is what we find. Common call-outs are for marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items, in porcelain, vitreous china and cisterns & lids.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. 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.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

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.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes an hour or two. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
  2. Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
  3. It’s sanded flush.
  4. The glaze is colour-matched and finished.
  5. We polish the repair to blend it in.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

How we price toilet chip repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Ynyswen. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

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

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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 before you book.

What we work on

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

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you work in Ynyswen?

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

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
