Tile repair in Canford Magna, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people contact us are cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

When to call us in Canford Magna

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How the colour is matched

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Canford Magna use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A photo taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Your questions about tile repair in Canford Magna

How do I get a price for tile repair in Canford Magna?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

What you get with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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.

The process

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the tile and remove 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. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
