Toilet Chip Repair in Horwich
Chip and break repairs to toilets, cisterns and other ceramics at your home in Horwich, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Repairs from £95
- Chips on the pan or rim
- Damage from dropped items
Toilet chip repair in Horwich without replacing anything
We rebuild the damaged area and match it to the glaze, so the toilet stays in place. Leaking cracks need the toilet replacing, and we’ll say so if we find one. We regularly repair porcelain, vitreous china and cisterns & lids, and common reasons people contact us are marks on the outside of the pan and damage from dropped items.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Take care with heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Horwich
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Horwich as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What affects the price in Horwich
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Horwich. The price reflects:
- The material
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
If you are in Horwich and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- 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 photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Cisterns & lids
- Toilet pans
- Vitreous china
- Pedestals
- Porcelain
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Horwich questions
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do you cover Horwich?
We do. We send a technician to Horwich for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Bolton, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take one to two hours, including clearing up.
- We clean and dry the damaged area.
- Next we rebuild the missing piece to its original shape.
- It’s sanded flush.
- We colour-match and finish the glaze.
- Finally we polish it into the surrounding glaze.
How to prepare

- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
