Trusted tile repair in Hugh Town

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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

How we handle tile repair in Hugh Town

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you’re dealing with chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, we can help, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

When we’d advise against a repair

10 questions to ask before you book

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, 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.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

If you are in Hugh Town and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Questions from Hugh Town

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
