Tile repair at your home in Dunham on Trent

We repair the tile in place, 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. We are often asked to fix drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, on ceramic tiles, marble and porcelain tiles.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What we’re called out for in Dunham on Trent

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair 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

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

Your questions about tile repair in Dunham on Trent

How do I get a price for tile repair in Dunham on Trent?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NG22 postcode.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
