How we handle tile repair in Blackbrook

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. If you are dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help, whatever the material.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Blackbrook, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

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

Can I fix it myself?

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 a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

When to call us in Blackbrook

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What a repair can’t fix

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.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work 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. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
