Guardbridge: your questions answered

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

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Do you come to Guardbridge?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Guardbridge from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

When can you do it?

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Guardbridge. The price depends on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Guardbridge, and we will reply with a fixed price.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
