DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Tile repair at your home in Chew Moor
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Typical jobs include discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, in natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Chew Moor
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Chew Moor?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Comparing quotes

- Aftercare advice
- How the colour is matched
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Bolton and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Chew Moor. The price comes down to:
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
