How we handle tile repair in Chelveston

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you’re dealing with damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles, we can typically put it right, on floor and wall tiles, marble and ceramic tiles alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Chelveston as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What happens on the day

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

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  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. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

Landlord and trade work in Chelveston

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t 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.

Chelveston: your questions answered

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How to compare quotes

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What affects the price in Chelveston

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material

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