How it works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

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

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Battledown Cross

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. 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.

Common questions in Battledown Cross

Can you quote from photos?

Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Battledown Cross included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Do you work in Battledown Cross?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Battledown Cross from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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 typically the cheaper route.

What a repair can’t fix

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
