Tile repair in Gorton, done in place

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Our repair technicians work on floor and wall tiles, marble and ceramic tiles, and people most frequently call us about chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Gorton. What changes the price is:

  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole tiled area, we can price the job without visiting.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Your questions about tile repair in Gorton

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What does tile repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your M18 postcode.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Are there extra charges for Gorton?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

When to call us in Gorton

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Greater Manchester and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

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

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace in Gorton?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

Why book with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • No need to remove anything
