Tile repair near Bergh Apton

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

How we handle tile repair in Bergh Apton

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Typical jobs include drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, in floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and marble.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not 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 will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Bergh Apton

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.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

What to look for in a quote

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Aftercare advice
  • What prep work is covered

10 questions to ask before booking

Questions from Bergh Apton

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens next?

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

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Generally, if it isn’t loose.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bergh Apton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
