Tile repair in Openshaw without replacing anything
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our repair technicians work on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most often call us about discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Openshaw. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile 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.
What you get with us
- Everything repaired in place
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Work done at your home or business
Take a look at our prices page.
What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Floor and wall tiles
- Marble
- Ceramic tiles
- Porcelain tiles
- Natural stone & granite
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Openshaw use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
About our accreditations · Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.
