DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Tile repair at your home in Padiham
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles, we can generally put it right.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Padiham
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
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.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Typically, if it isn’t loose.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

When to call us in Padiham
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
- Damaged tile edges
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- When it can be used again
- What preparation is included
When a repair is not the answer
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
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- 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 a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What affects the price in Padiham
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Padiham. The price comes down to:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
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.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
