Bankglen questions

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Do the materials smell?

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

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

When can you do it?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Tile repair in Bankglen, done in place

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We are frequently asked to fix damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, in natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and marble.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Bankglen

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

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

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bankglen

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  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. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
