How we handle tile repair in Ashton-on-Ribble

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. If you are dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

You do not 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 will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Ashton-on-Ribble. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why us?

  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

FAQs for Ashton-on-Ribble

Will there be a smell?

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

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of Lancashire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Common problems we fix in Ashton-on-Ribble

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

The things customers typically mention when they call are:

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

Comparing quotes

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • When it can be used again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What preparation is included

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What we cannot put right

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
