Repairing versus replacing in Gorse Hill
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How we handle tile repair in Gorse Hill
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Gorse Hill. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
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 come back to you with a fixed figure.
Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t 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’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Advice
Questions from Gorse Hill
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Typically, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Gorse Hill and the rest of Greater Manchester. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it worth repairing rather 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.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
