Tile repair near Bowridge Hill

How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Tile repair in Bowridge Hill without replacing anything

The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We work on marble, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Bowridge Hill questions

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Dorset.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Bowridge Hill. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Dorset and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
