Tile repair at your home in Hawkshaw

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Typical jobs include drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Hawkshaw as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

10 questions to ask before you book

What we cannot put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

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

The process

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  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. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Hawkshaw. The price reflects:

  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from pictures

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Questions from Hawkshaw

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do I need to be at home?

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

How do I get a price for tile repair in Hawkshaw?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Do you come to Hawkshaw?

We do. We send a technician to Hawkshaw for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

For landlords and businesses

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

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
