DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Tile repair in Northern Quarter without replacing anything
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If you’re dealing with damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles, we can typically put it right.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Northern Quarter, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Questions from Northern Quarter
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you work in Northern Quarter?
We do. Technicians travel to Northern Quarter from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Signs you need tile repair in Northern Quarter
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Cracked floor tiles
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Damaged tile edges
Comparing quotes
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- When it can be used again
- How the colour is matched
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- 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.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Repair or replace in Northern Quarter?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
