How we handle tile repair in Dry Sandford

The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, we can help, whatever the material.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

Dry Sandford: your questions answered

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

How much does tile repair cost in Dry Sandford?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
