Tile repair in Hollins, Oldham
Fixed-price tile repair in Hollins and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Repairs from £95
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Cracked floor tiles
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Tile repair in Hollins, done in place
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We regularly repair porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most often call us about drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Common questions in Hollins
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you work in Hollins?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Hollins for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What does tile repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Frequently, yes, if it is not loose.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- 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.
What we work on
- Natural stone & granite
- Porcelain tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
- Marble
- Ceramic tiles
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
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.
