Tile repair at your home in Cottown

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Before and after: damaged granite tiles repaired in place

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

The process

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Related advice

Cottown questions

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Cottown?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your AB54 postcode.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Repair or replace in Cottown?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it 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.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Everything repaired in place

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

When to call us in Cottown

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.

Common reasons people in Cottown contact us are:

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

What your quote should include

  • How your room will be protected
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
