Tile repair in Old Trafford without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

10 questions to ask before booking

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Old Trafford

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. 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, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We leave the room as we found it

Questions from Old Trafford

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Greater Manchester. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Generally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Landlord and trade work in Old Trafford

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 is easier on the people living there.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
