Tile repair near Outwood

Tile repair in Outwood, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on floor and wall tiles, marble and natural stone & granite, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

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

Outwood questions

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Outwood and the rest of Bury. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you work in Outwood?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Outwood for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Often, yes, if it isn’t loose.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Are there extra charges for Outwood?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

When to call us in Outwood

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Most customers in Outwood get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When we would advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

The process

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
