Tile repair for Bicknacre homes

How we handle tile repair in Bicknacre

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Common call-outs are for cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools, across floor and wall tiles, marble and porcelain tiles.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Bicknacre questions

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

What your quote should include

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When we’d 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

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace in Bicknacre?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
