How the visit works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

About our tile repair in Combs

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite.

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

Our hiring checklist

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SK23 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Your questions about tile repair in Combs

How much does tile repair cost in Combs?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Combs and the rest of Derbyshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you work in Combs?

We do. We send a technician to Combs for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Repairing versus replacing in Combs

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
