Need tile repair in Culford?

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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

Tile repair in Culford without replacing anything

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. Typical jobs include discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, on ceramic tiles, marble and porcelain tiles.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Choosing a repair company

Common questions in Culford

Is it messy?

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

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Frequently, yes, if it is not loose.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Do you come to Culford?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Culford and the rest of Suffolk. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Culford. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

The process

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

  • Whole walls of failing grout

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
