Choosing a repair company

About our tile repair in Heywood

We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We are frequently asked to fix discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, in natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and marble.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Common questions in Heywood

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

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

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your OL10 postcode.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you come to Heywood?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Heywood. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

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 typically cheaper.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Heywood. What changes the price is:

  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled 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

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Heywood

Letting agents often 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.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Heywood use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repairing versus replacing in Heywood

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
