Tile repair near Gillette Corner

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

About our tile repair in Gillette Corner

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, we can help, on floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and marble alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Gillette Corner 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.

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Gillette Corner. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is

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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire tiled area, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

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

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Do you come to Gillette Corner?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Gillette Corner from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
