DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Tile repair at your home in Green Bank

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We’re frequently asked to fix drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, across porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and marble.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cumbria. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why us?

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colour-matched on site
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Green Bank questions

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Usually, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

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

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you work in Green Bank?

We do. We send a technician to Green Bank for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlord and trade work in Green Bank

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What we’re called out for in Green Bank

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Clients typically contact us about:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
