Orrell questions
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Wigan. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Toilet chip repair in Orrell without replacing anything
A crack that leaks cannot be fixed with a cosmetic repair, and we will say so if we find one. Chips are rebuilt and colour matched to the glaze, so you don’t need a plumber or a new toilet. Common call-outs are for chips on the cistern lid and marks on the outside of the pan, across cisterns & lids, vitreous china and toilet pans.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items and use non-abrasive cleaners on the outside of the pan and cistern.

What toilet chip repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Orrell. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
When to call us in Orrell
Most toilet chips happen while the bathroom is being fitted, or from a dropped lid or bottle. Cistern lids are a common casualty.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Pieces knocked off during fitting
- Damage from dropped items
- Chips on the cistern lid
- Chips on the pan or rim
