Cat Bank: your questions answered

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do you cover the entire of Cumbria?

Everywhere in the UK, Cat Bank included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Do you charge for travel?

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

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Repair or replace in Cat Bank?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Cat Bank customers choose us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • A fixed quote before booking

See our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When to call us in Cat Bank

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Cracked floor tiles

10 questions to ask before you book

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Cat Bank. The price reflects:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
