Choosing a repair company

Tile repair at your home in Acaster Malbis

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our technicians work on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean the tile and remove 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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Landlords, agents and businesses in Acaster Malbis

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

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

Acaster Malbis: your questions answered

What do you need from me?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Acaster Malbis. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire tiled area

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
