How we handle tile repair in Gildingwells

The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gildingwells

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gildingwells use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Nottinghamshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Gildingwells: your questions answered

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Frequently, yes, if it is not loose.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Signs you need tile repair in Gildingwells

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Drill holes from removed fittings

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

10 questions to ask before you book

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How we price tile repair

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

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
