Tile repair at your home in Irlam
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, across ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Irlam, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t 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 pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Floor and wall tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Marble
- Natural stone & granite
- Porcelain tiles

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Questions from Irlam
How much does tile repair cost in Irlam?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your M44 postcode.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Irlam.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace in Irlam?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
