Tile repair for Bigbury-on-Sea homes

Landlord and trade work in Bigbury-on-Sea

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

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Tile repair in Bigbury-on-Sea without replacing anything

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you’re dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

When a repair isn’t the answer

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.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Questions from Bigbury-on-Sea

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Bigbury-on-Sea?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TQ7 postcode.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

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.

When to call us in Bigbury-on-Sea

Our hiring checklist

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled 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

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
