Tile repair near Swinton

Tile repair in Swinton, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. We regularly repair marble, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles, and people most often call us about chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Common questions in Swinton

When can you do it?

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

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, 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. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Swinton. The price comes down to:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Swinton, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Landlord and trade work in Swinton

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
