Tile repair for Handley homes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Tile repair in Handley, done in place

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. If you are dealing with chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  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

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice

Your questions about tile repair in Handley

When can you do it?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Typically, if it isn’t loose.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

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

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Our hiring checklist

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. 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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
