DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

FAQs for Coldharbour

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

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

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Coldharbour is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Landlord and trade work in Coldharbour

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

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • Something in shot to show the size

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

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

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, 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
