Tile repair in Ball

About our tile repair in Ball

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on porcelain tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit 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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What we are called out for in Ball

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

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

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 will say what we think before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ball

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Ball. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Take a look at our full price list.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  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. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
