Tile repair in Abbey Hills

How we handle tile repair in Abbey Hills

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across marble, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Abbey Hills

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Abbey Hills

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Cracked floor tiles

Before you book anyone

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
