Tile repair in Bathley

Tile repair in Bathley, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that will not 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 will say what we think.

What we work on

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

What we’re called out for in Bathley

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.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Damaged tile edges

10 questions to ask before booking

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

What tile repair costs

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

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

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.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
