Tile repair for Crossbank homes

Tile repair in Crossbank without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, on marble, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Crossbank and across Oldham. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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 pictures.

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What we work on

  • Natural stone & granite
  • Marble
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Ceramic tiles

Repair or replace in Crossbank?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Crossbank: your questions answered

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Oldham, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What affects the price in Crossbank

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Do you need tile repair in Crossbank?

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Damaged tile edges

Before you book anyone

  • How the colour is matched
  • How to look after the finish
  • Who turns up on the day
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
