Tile repair for Bendish homes

How we handle tile repair in Bendish

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. We regularly repair ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles, and people most frequently call us about discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Bendish

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Doing more than one item at once

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.

  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. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Bendish, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

When to call us in Bendish

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Drill holes from removed fittings

Questions to ask before booking

  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Aftercare advice
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

How to compare quotes

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Common questions in Bendish

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Generally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
