We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so.

Repairing versus replacing in Brooksbottoms
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Bury and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What affects the price in Brooksbottoms
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
