Tile repair near Carno

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing 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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

How we handle tile repair in Carno

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

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

FAQs for Carno

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Carno included. Travel is included in the price.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Repairing versus replacing in Carno

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Carno. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it

If you are in Carno and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
