Tile repair in Handbridge, done in place

We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. Our technicians work on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles, and people most frequently call us about damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Handbridge questions

How do I get a price for tile repair in Handbridge?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Handbridge included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

What we do, step by step

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access
