About our tile repair in Heybrook Bay

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our repair technicians work on marble, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Heybrook Bay. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

FAQs for Heybrook Bay

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can tenants book a repair?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Normally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Do you cover Heybrook Bay?

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

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

When to call us in Heybrook Bay

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Damaged tile edges
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Landlord and trade work in Heybrook Bay

If you manage property in Heybrook Bay, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What we do, step by step

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, 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. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled 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

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

What a repair can’t fix

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Porcelain tiles
  • Marble
  • Natural stone & granite
  • Ceramic tiles
