Tile repair in Creeting Bottoms

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

Tile repair in Creeting Bottoms without replacing anything

The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. If you’re dealing with cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can normally put it right.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

  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. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Advice

What we are called out for in Creeting Bottoms

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

People usually call us after spotting one of these:

  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Damaged tile edges

What your quote should include

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Creeting Bottoms

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Creeting Bottoms. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we can’t do:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Creeting Bottoms as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Your questions about tile repair in Creeting Bottoms

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

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Are you accredited?

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

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Generally, if it is not loose.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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