Tile repair at your home in Barlow

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We regularly repair ceramic tiles, marble and porcelain tiles, and people most often call us about drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Before and after: damaged granite tiles repaired in place

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Barlow. The price reflects:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Barlow. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Why book with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No need to remove anything

Barlow: your questions answered

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What information do you need?

How to compare quotes

What a repair can’t fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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 before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Porcelain tiles
  • Marble
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Ceramic tiles
  • Natural stone & granite

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Barlow as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
