Dry Doddington: your questions answered

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Frequently, yes, if it is not loose.

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Tile repair in Dry Doddington, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, we can normally put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlord and trade work in Dry Doddington

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

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What affects the price in Dry Doddington

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Dry Doddington. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When to call us in Dry Doddington

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.

The things clients usually mention when they call are:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Choosing a repair company

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
