Tile repair at your home in Cullivoe

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, on ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and marble.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

How it works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

See our pricing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Our hiring checklist

Cullivoe questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Frequently, yes, if it isn’t loose.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Do I have to be there?

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

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.
