Tile repair for Holywell homes

What affects the price in Holywell

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

  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back

For a price in Holywell, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

About our tile repair in Holywell

We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help, on natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and marble alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Holywell and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Common questions in Holywell

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

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

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, so Holywell is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your PE27 postcode.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. 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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Landlord and trade work in Holywell

For anyone letting property in or around Holywell, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

10 questions to ask before booking

Repairing versus replacing in Holywell

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
