Choosing a repair company

How we handle tile repair in Grayrigg

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Typical jobs include chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, in ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Natural light rather than flash

Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LA8 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Grayrigg questions

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Grayrigg included. Travel is included in the price.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Repairing versus replacing in Grayrigg

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Grayrigg. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • 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 you book.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

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

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
