Tile repair in Oakenshaw without replacing anything

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 will tell you. Common call-outs are for chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, in ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Oakenshaw as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The material and finish
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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.

Your questions about tile repair in Oakenshaw

What happens next?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole tiled area and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Bradford, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Are there extra charges for Oakenshaw?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’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 before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Ceramic tiles
  • Marble
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Natural stone & granite

The process

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
