Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Tile repair in Aspatria, done in place

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Typical jobs include cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, on marble, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlord and trade work in Aspatria

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Aspatria as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

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

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CA7 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Aspatria: your questions answered

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Do you come to Aspatria?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Aspatria and the rest of Cumbria. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repairing versus replacing in Aspatria

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  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. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
