Trusted tile repair in Clay Common

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Tile repair in Clay Common, done in place

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We work on ceramic tiles, marble and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people contact us are chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How to compare quotes

Repairing versus replacing in Clay Common

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Take a look at our prices page.

What tile repair costs

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

  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For a price in Clay Common, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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 match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Clay Common

For anyone letting property in or around Clay Common, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
