DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Tile repair at your home in Ibstock

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. If you’re dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help, on floor and wall tiles, marble and natural stone & granite alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Ibstock as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace in Ibstock?

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  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. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How we price tile repair

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

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Ibstock. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For a price in Ibstock, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
