Tile repair in Thorns Green without replacing anything

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Typical jobs include discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, on natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Thorns Green

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  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. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Thorns Green, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Thorns Green questions

Do you work in Thorns Green?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Thorns Green from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you cover the whole of Trafford?

All of Trafford, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

You don’t 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.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
