Tile repair at your home in Carr
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Our repair technicians work on ceramic tiles, marble and porcelain tiles, and common reasons people contact us are drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oldham. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What a repair cannot fix

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your OL3 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Oldham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Why us?
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Same prices wherever you are

How it works
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Your questions about tile repair in Carr
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you come to Carr?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Carr from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
How much does tile repair cost in Carr?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your OL3 postcode.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
