About our tile repair in Earl Sterndale

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

When we would advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we work on in Earl Sterndale

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Earl Sterndale

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Earl Sterndale questions

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Are there extra charges for Earl Sterndale?

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

Can landlords book you?

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

Do you come to Earl Sterndale?

We do. We send a technician to Earl Sterndale for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole tiled area and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Earl Sterndale, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Earl Sterndale

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
