When a repair is not the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 you book.

What we work on

  • Ceramic tiles
  • Marble
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Natural stone & granite
  • Floor and wall tiles

Common problems we fix in Doe Bank

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Cracked floor tiles

We also work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, so if you care for a building such as St Joseph's Catholic Primary School, tiled corridors and washrooms can be repaired in place too.

Questions to ask before you book

  • What prep work is covered
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How the colour is matched

10 questions to ask before booking

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Doe Bank. What changes the price is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

How it works

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together. Visits around Doe Bank are usually simple: we park, protect the room and get started, after agreeing the plan with you.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Doe Bank, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Doe Bank questions

Are there extra charges for Doe Bank?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

What information do you need?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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 usually the cheaper route.
