Tile repair in Acrefair

About our tile repair in Acrefair

We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We’re frequently asked to fix chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, across ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble.

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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

  • 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 will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start 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.

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Acrefair: your questions answered

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your LL14 postcode.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Do you work in Acrefair?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Acrefair from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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

Landlord and trade work in Acrefair

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What we are called out for in Acrefair

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace

What to look for in a quote

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Aftercare advice

Choosing a repair company

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
