Tile repair for Bolton Low Houses homes

Tile repair in Bolton Low Houses, done in place

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. Whether it’s damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles, we can normally put it right, on ceramic tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles alike.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Before and after: damaged granite tiles repaired in place

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Bolton Low Houses. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CA7 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.

Questions from Bolton Low Houses

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Is it messy?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
