Tile repair at your home in Adforton

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 tell you. We work on porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most frequently call us about drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges.

In a village like Adforton, older homes may have tiled or wooden floors that have been down for years, and matching them is difficult. Repairing the damage keeps the original.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours. Somewhere like Adforton needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring everything needed for the tile repair, so there’s no second trip.

  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. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’d 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

What affects the price in Adforton

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed, with no obligation. What we look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes cost nothing and no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Adforton

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. In an older home in a village like Adforton, replacing a tiled area can be harder than it sounds: original pieces may not match modern sizes, and access can be awkward. A repair keeps the original.

Our tile repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Do you need tile repair in Adforton?

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Drill holes from removed fittings

For older houses around Adforton, near landmarks such as Church of St Andrew, original tiled floors and fireplaces are worth keeping, and chips and cracks can be repaired in place.
