How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Colwick. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

How we handle tile repair in Colwick

The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. Our repair technicians work on porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most frequently call us about cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlord and trade work in Colwick

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why Colwick clients choose us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We leave the room as we found it

See our prices page.

Colwick: your questions answered

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Often, yes, if it isn’t loose.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we are called out for in Colwick

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

The things clients typically mention when they call are:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Damaged tile edges

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Aftercare advice
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we’re done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NG4 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
