How we handle tile repair in Leigh
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. Common call-outs are for chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, in marble, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
If you’re in Leigh and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Leigh as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Leigh: your questions answered
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Leigh?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your DT9 postcode.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Leigh included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
