Tile repair near Gate Burton

Tile repair in Gate Burton without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our repair technicians work on ceramic tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Gate Burton and across Lincolnshire. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlord and trade work in Gate Burton

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

10 questions to ask before booking

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we can’t do 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Gate Burton questions

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Gate Burton is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

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

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Is there any odour?

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

Do you cover Gate Burton?

We do. We send a technician to Gate Burton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What affects the price in Gate Burton

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Gate Burton. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Gate Burton. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
