Your questions about tile repair in Gathurst
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Frequently, yes, if it isn’t loose.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Gathurst and the rest of Wigan. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Tile repair in Gathurst, done in place
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. We work on floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Gathurst as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gathurst
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gathurst use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- Access to the area
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Gathurst. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
For a price in Gathurst, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile 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.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
