Tile repair in Bolton without replacing anything
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We are often asked to fix drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, across floor and wall tiles, marble and porcelain tiles.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Bolton, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Common problems we fix in Bolton
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.
The things clients usually mention when they call are:
- Damaged tile edges

- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
What your quote should include
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
