All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater Manchester. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

FAQs for Manchester
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How much does tile repair cost in Manchester?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your M40 postcode.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Often, yes, if it is not loose.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Are there extra charges for Manchester?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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 booking.
Materials we repair
- Ceramic tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
- Porcelain tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Marble
What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Manchester. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire tiled area, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Greater Manchester and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
