Tile repair in Ab Kettleby

How we handle tile repair in Ab Kettleby

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles, and people most often call us about damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Ab Kettleby

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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

How do I get a price for tile repair in Ab Kettleby?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Generally, if it is not loose.

What affects the price in Ab Kettleby

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

See our prices page.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

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.

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.
