How we handle tile repair in Burley
We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Typical jobs include cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools, on porcelain tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Burley
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Burley use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
If you manage property in Burley, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
