Tile repair in Bale without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you are dealing with chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, we can generally put it right, on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles alike.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Common questions in Bale

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

What does tile repair cost?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your NR21 postcode.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do I need to be at home?

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

Do you come to Bale?

We do. We send a technician to Bale for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Common problems we fix in Bale

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

  • Damaged tile edges

  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • What it’s made of, if you know

For a price in Bale, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
