About our tile repair in Hathern

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. We are often asked to fix cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, on natural stone & granite, marble and porcelain tiles.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repairing versus replacing in Hathern

Swapping out a damaged 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. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Hathern clients choose us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Landlord and trade work in Hathern

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 will tell you honestly.

Choosing a repair company

Hathern: your questions answered

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Do you cover Hathern?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Hathern for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

The process

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

What affects the price in Hathern

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Hathern. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LE12 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
