Bilton in Ainsty questions

How do I get a price for tile repair in Bilton in Ainsty?

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

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

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’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Bilton in Ainsty.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Choosing a repair company

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Open a window if you can
