Tile repair in Coffinswell, done in place

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, across porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Coffinswell

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you quote from pictures?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Coffinswell?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Coffinswell. The price comes down to:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Coffinswell

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

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 often lifts.

Repairing versus replacing in Coffinswell

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Coffinswell. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why book with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Fixed prices from your photos

See our pricing.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

How it works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  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

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Get a quote

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
