How we handle tile repair in Swinton

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Our technicians work on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Swinton

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Swinton. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Most customers in Swinton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

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.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

If you manage property in Swinton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to compare quotes

Repairing versus replacing in Swinton

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. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What you get with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • No need to remove anything
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Swinton questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What does tile repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do you cover Swinton?

We do. We send a technician to Swinton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Frequently, yes, if it is not loose.

What a repair cannot fix

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout
