Tile repair in Thornton Hough, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Choosing a repair company

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Thornton Hough use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Thornton Hough questions

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Generally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you quote from photos?

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

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  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. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the area is dry
