Bowden: your questions answered
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
About our tile repair in Bowden
We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Typical jobs include drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, in natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Bowden as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What affects the price in Bowden
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Bowden. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Repair or replace in Bowden?
