About our tile repair in Creeting St Peter

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We work on porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and marble, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Choosing a repair company

How it works

We turn 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. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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.

For landlords and businesses

For anyone letting property in or around Creeting St Peter, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed price

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Repairing versus replacing in Creeting St Peter

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Creeting St Peter questions

What information do you need?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Normally, if it isn’t loose.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

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