Need tile repair in Cheswick Green?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Tile repair in Cheswick Green without replacing anything

The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We work on marble, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles, and people most frequently call us about cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we can’t put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot 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.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cheswick Green

If you manage property in Cheswick Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cheswick Green as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

What happens on the day

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Repairing versus replacing in Cheswick Green

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
