Tile repair in Barton

How we handle tile repair in Barton

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We are frequently asked to fix drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across floor and wall tiles, marble and natural stone & granite.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Ask for a price

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CB23 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

If you manage property in Barton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

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. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Barton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole tiled area, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
