Tile repair near Garth Row

Honest limits

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • 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 will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Tile repair in Garth Row, done in place

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. If you are dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Garth Row and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Garth Row

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you work in Garth Row?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Garth Row. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Advice

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Garth Row. What changes the price is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Garth Row, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Landlord and trade work in Garth Row

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Garth Row as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

For anyone letting property in or around Garth Row, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When to call us in Garth Row

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Contact us if you’ve noticed:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

What to look for in a quote

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What prep work is covered
  • How long it needs to cure
  • What aftercare is recommended

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Garth Row

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Colour-matched on site
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
