Need tile repair in Hexton?

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Tile repair in Hexton without replacing anything

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Choosing a repair company

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  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 area is dry
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Hexton questions

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

Will you leave a mess?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any details about the material
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the whole tiled area

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
