Tile repair in Cotmanhay

About our tile repair in Cotmanhay

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If you are dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, we can typically put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Cotmanhay. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

If you manage property in Cotmanhay, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

The process

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

Advice

What a repair can’t fix

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Everything repaired in place

How to compare quotes

Your questions about tile repair in Cotmanhay

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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.
