Book tile repair in Bowcombe

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Bowcombe, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Tile repair in Bowcombe, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you are dealing with chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges, we can typically put it right, on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why book with us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Take a look at our full price list.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  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. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Questions from Bowcombe

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you come to Bowcombe?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Bowcombe. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Generally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What a repair cannot fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t 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 photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bowcombe

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Do you need tile repair in Bowcombe?

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools

How to compare quotes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
