Landlord and trade work in Gawthwaite
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cumbria and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- 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 will give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Marble
- Floor and wall tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Porcelain tiles
- Ceramic tiles
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
