Trusted tile repair in Greencroft

Landlords, agents and businesses in Greencroft

If you manage property in Greencroft, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Greencroft as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Tile repair in Greencroft without replacing anything

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We’re frequently asked to fix discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, across marble, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Questions from Greencroft

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What does tile repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
