About our tile repair in Bensham

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Typical jobs include drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, on porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs 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 pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, 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 will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

10 questions to ask before you book

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Bensham

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • Details of any past repairs

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Questions from Bensham

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What do you need from me?

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