Tile repair near Gunton

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

About our tile repair in Gunton

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. If you’re dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gunton

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Gunton: your questions answered

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?

Everywhere in the UK, Gunton included. There’s no extra charge for travel.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Frequently, yes, if it is not loose.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you price it without visiting?

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

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Same prices wherever you are

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Gunton. What changes the price is:

  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

There is no need for us to visit first. 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.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, 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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • How soon you can use it again

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
