Tile repair in Cathedral Quarter

Tile repair at your home in Cathedral Quarter

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Whether it’s damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can usually put it right.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What happens on the day

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Clear the area around the damage

Cathedral Quarter questions

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Cathedral Quarter?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your S1 postcode.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Our hiring checklist

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
