Tile repair at your home in Grasmere

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Typical jobs include damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Grasmere questions

Can you repair several things at once?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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

Do you cover the entire of Cumbria?

The entire UK, including all of Cumbria. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Are there extra charges for Grasmere?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

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

Landlord and trade work in Grasmere

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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

What we’re called out for in Grasmere

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Drill holes from removed fittings

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace in Grasmere?

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

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 will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  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. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Grasmere. The price reflects:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How much damage there is

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the entire tiled area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
