Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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

What affects the price in Deeping St Nicholas

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • The material and finish

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any details about the material

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Your questions about tile repair in Deeping St Nicholas

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Will you leave a mess?

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

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What we are called out for in Deeping St Nicholas

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

What your quote should include

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the room is protected while they work

Choosing a repair company

For landlords and businesses

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

If you manage property in Deeping St Nicholas, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

When we would advise against a repair

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

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

What we work on

  • Floor and wall tiles

The process

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
