Tile repair for High Cross homes

Landlord and trade work in High Cross

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in High Cross as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

How we handle tile repair in High Cross

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’ll say so. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help, on marble, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite alike.

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

What happens on the day

Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can

Do you need tile repair in High Cross?

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Look out for any of the following:

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

Before booking anyone

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What prep work is covered
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether they match the colour on site

Our hiring checklist

What we can’t put right

We will not take on work that won’t 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Common questions in High Cross

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Are there extra charges for High Cross?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How much does tile repair cost in High Cross?

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

Everywhere in the UK, High Cross included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Usually, if it isn’t loose.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is

Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area

If you are in High Cross and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
