Tile repair in Dunster, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. We are often asked to fix chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges, in ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we’re called out for in Dunster

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

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

Before you book anyone

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How your room will be protected
  • Whether the price covers travel

Common questions in Dunster

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you work in Dunster?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Dunster and the rest of Somerset. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
