How we handle tile repair in Ashby Folville

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. We are often asked to fix drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in natural stone & granite, marble and ceramic tiles.

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. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Repairing versus replacing in Ashby Folville

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Ashby Folville: your questions answered

Can you quote from photos?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do you cover Ashby Folville?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Ashby Folville from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Usually, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Will you leave a mess?

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

When we’d advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot 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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Ashby Folville. What changes the price is:

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

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
