Tile repair in Dogdyke

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for 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 send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Tile repair at your home in Dogdyke

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. If you’re dealing with cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Your questions about tile repair in Dogdyke

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.

Do you cover Dogdyke?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Dogdyke and the rest of Lincolnshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Generally, if it is not loose.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

If you manage property in Dogdyke, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

When we would advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • 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 will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace in Dogdyke?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For a price in Dogdyke, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
