Tile repair near Bessels Green

Tile repair in Bessels Green, done in place

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, on floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Bessels Green questions

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, 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, and the work is guaranteed.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, 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.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

Choosing a repair company

When we would advise against a repair

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Porcelain tiles
  • Marble
  • Natural stone & granite

How we price tile repair

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

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Bessels Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs

Most customers in Bessels Green get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
