About our tile repair in Chelmondiston

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 will tell you. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help, on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and marble alike.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Chelmondiston. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Chelmondiston

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

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Common questions in Chelmondiston

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Usually, if it is not loose.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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

Do you charge for travel?

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

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

What we are called out for in Chelmondiston

How to compare quotes

What we cannot put right

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
