Tile repair near Burlescombe

Tile repair at your home in Burlescombe

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can generally put it right.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We clean the tile and remove 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. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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 will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What affects the price in Burlescombe

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Landlord and trade work in Burlescombe

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
