Tile repair at your home in Hockerton

We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. If you are dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, we can usually put it right.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Nottinghamshire. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hockerton as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Hockerton questions

How soon can you come?

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

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

What tile repair costs

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

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

Do you need tile repair in Hockerton?

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

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

Before booking anyone

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if they find more damage

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Repairing versus replacing in Hockerton

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
