Book tile repair in Hollow Street

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  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

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Tile repair in Hollow Street without replacing anything

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help, whatever the material.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

FAQs for Hollow Street

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Often, yes, if it isn’t loose.

Are there extra charges for Hollow Street?

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

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Is my repair covered?

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

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Why book with us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • No extra charge for your area
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Landlord and trade work in Hollow Street

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

For anyone letting property in or around Hollow Street, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

What affects the price in Hollow Street

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Something in shot to show the size

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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