About our toilet chip repair in Carr
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. A crack that leaks can’t be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will tell you if that’s what we find. Common call-outs are for pieces knocked off during fitting and chips on the cistern lid, on vitreous china, porcelain and pedestals.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items and clean the outside of the pan gently.

What else we do in Carr
Questions from Carr
Do you come to Carr?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Carr. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Carr and the rest of Oldham. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you repair a chipped toilet?
Yes. We repair chips on pans, rims, cisterns and lids.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Carr. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your OL3 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes one to two hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We start by cleaning and drying the damage.
- Missing material is filled and rebuilt to the original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We match the colour to the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Get a quote
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Landlord and trade work in Carr
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Common problems we fix in Carr
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or when something heavy is dropped. Cistern lids get chipped surprisingly frequently.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Chips on the pan or rim
What your quote should include
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How the room is protected while they work
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether they match the colour on site
Repair or replace in Carr?
Replacing a toilet means a plumber and sometimes new flooring around the pan, and the matching cistern may be discontinued. Repairing the chip 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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
