Tile repair in Cotterstock

Tile repair at your home in Cotterstock

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cotterstock use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Cotterstock

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Do you cover the whole of Northamptonshire?

The entire UK, including all of Northamptonshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

Do you cover Cotterstock?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Cotterstock from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Usually, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Most clients in Cotterstock get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Honest limits

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
