Tile repair near Breightmet

What affects the price in Breightmet

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Tile repair in Breightmet without replacing anything

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, across marble, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Breightmet and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Breightmet questions

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Usually, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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
  • Ceramic tiles
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Natural stone & granite
  • Marble

Landlord and trade work in Breightmet

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

What we’re called out for in Breightmet

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Damaged tile edges
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Cracked floor tiles

What your quote should include

  • When it can be used again
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if they find more damage
