Common questions in Combe Down

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you come to Combe Down?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Combe Down from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Do you hold any accreditations?

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Tile repair in Combe Down without replacing anything

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 tell you. Common call-outs are for cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, across ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Do you need tile repair in Combe Down?

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Cracked floor tiles

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • When it can be used again
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Most jobs done in one visit

What affects the price in Combe Down

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Combe Down. The price comes down to:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Instead of hourly rates, 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

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

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 price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
