Tile repair in Holloway Down

Questions from Holloway Down

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How much does tile repair cost in Holloway Down?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

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

Does someone need to be in?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

How we handle tile repair in Holloway Down

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you’re dealing with cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can usually put it right, on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and marble alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Holloway Down and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we can’t do 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.

What we work on

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

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Common problems we fix in Holloway Down

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Damaged tile edges
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Cracked floor tiles

Before you book anyone

  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material

Most clients in Holloway Down get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
