Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Questions from Stanley Gate

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Stanley Gate and the rest of Lancashire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

Do you need tile repair in Stanley Gate?

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • What prep work is covered
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Aftercare advice

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

What affects the price in Stanley Gate

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stanley Gate

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

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.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
