About our tile repair in Platt Bridge

We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. Typical jobs include chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, on natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and marble.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire tiled area

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your WN2 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Common questions in Platt Bridge

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Wigan.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Wigan. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What a repair cannot fix

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 before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Platt Bridge

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

If you manage property in Platt Bridge, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

10 questions to ask before you book

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

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, and the work is guaranteed.
