How we handle tile repair in Audenshaw
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and marble, and common reasons people contact us are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.
What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Audenshaw. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Floor and wall tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Marble
- Porcelain tiles
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Audenshaw use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Advice
Audenshaw questions
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Are there extra charges for Audenshaw?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
