Tile repair at your home in Ewood

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Whether it’s damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can typically put it right, on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles alike.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Ewood and across Blackburn with Darwen. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us 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. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Ewood questions

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Will it make a mess?

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

What does tile repair cost?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Blackburn with Darwen, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Repairing versus replacing in Ewood

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Landlord and trade work in Ewood

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
