How tile repair works in Carrickfergus

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Our repair technicians work on marble, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles, and people most often call us about cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools.

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

What it costs in Carrickfergus

Our tile repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Carrickfergus

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools

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 normally cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 won’t last.

Landlord and trade work in Carrickfergus

For anyone letting property in or around Carrickfergus, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A photo taken from further back

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Repair or replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile.

Questions to ask before booking

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • If travel is included in the price
