About our tile repair in Gunthorpe

The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Common call-outs are for damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, across marble, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Common questions in Gunthorpe

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

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

Do I have to be there?

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

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace in Gunthorpe?

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. Our tile repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Gunthorpe

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Gunthorpe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled 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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
