Tile repair near Eccleshall

Tile repair in Eccleshall, done in place

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our technicians work on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we do, step by step

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Advice

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Eccleshall questions

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Staffordshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

Are there extra charges for Eccleshall?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Eccleshall, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Eccleshall. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
