Trusted tile repair in Great Sampford

Landlords, agents and businesses in Great Sampford

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

How we handle tile repair in Great Sampford

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We work on porcelain tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people contact us are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Great Sampford: your questions answered

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Great Sampford and the rest of Essex. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start 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.

Why us?

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Take a look at our pricing.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole tiled area

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
