Tile repair in Crooklands without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can usually put it right.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Crooklands as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlord and trade work in Crooklands

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

When to call us in Crooklands

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

Questions to ask before booking

  • If travel is included in the price
  • How the colour is matched
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Questions from Crooklands

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For a price in Crooklands, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
