Tile repair in Towngate without replacing anything

We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. Whether it’s damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles, we can help, on marble, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean the tile and remove 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. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Ask for a price

Repair or replace in Towngate?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

See our prices page.

What affects the price in Towngate

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Questions from Towngate

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Lancashire.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Towngate included. There is no extra charge for travel.

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.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

When a repair is not the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits 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’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Porcelain tiles
  • Marble
  • Floor and wall tiles

10 questions to ask before booking

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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 generally cheaper.
