Tile repair near Great Wilne

How we handle tile repair in Great Wilne

We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Our technicians work on floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles, and people most often call us about cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Common questions in Great Wilne

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.

Is it messy?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Do you work in Great Wilne?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Great Wilne and the rest of Derbyshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What do you need from me?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Derbyshire.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

What we are called out for in Great Wilne

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools

What your quote should include

  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How long it needs to cure
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Who will actually do the work

Choosing a repair company

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the entire tiled area

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Great Wilne, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
