Tile repair for Ashwater homes

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Tile repair in Ashwater, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. We work on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble, and common reasons people get in touch are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Choosing a repair company

Common questions in Ashwater

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How much does tile repair cost in Ashwater?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Ashwater

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

If you manage property in Ashwater, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

What we do, step by step

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  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. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can
