About our tile repair in Alconbury

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 will tell you. We are often asked to fix discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, across ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Alconbury

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Alconbury as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  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

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Common questions in Alconbury

Are there extra charges for Alconbury?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is it messy?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Alconbury?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Alconbury. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A picture taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
