Tile repair for Bowshaw homes

Tile repair in Bowshaw without replacing anything

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, marble and ceramic tiles, and common reasons people contact us are chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

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

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Bowshaw. What changes the price is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Bowshaw questions

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What does tile repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you cover Bowshaw?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Bowshaw. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Ceramic tiles
  • Marble

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

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’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
