Landlords, agents and businesses in Huncoat

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 regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

About our tile repair in Huncoat

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can generally put it right.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon.

  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. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

FAQs for Huncoat

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

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

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire tiled area and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think.

10 questions to ask before you book

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
