Repairing versus replacing in Hoghton
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

About our tile repair in Hoghton
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 tell you. Typical jobs include damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, in floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lancashire. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Your questions about tile repair in Hoghton
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Normally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you come to Hoghton?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hoghton and the rest of Lancashire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Landlord and trade work in Hoghton
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hoghton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will not take on work that will not 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
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
