Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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

FAQs for Great Houghton

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Great Houghton.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Great Houghton

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Great Houghton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

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

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Great Houghton, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
