FAQs for Ilchester

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How soon can you come?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What does tile repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Tile repair in Ilchester without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We’re frequently asked to fix chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, in porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite.

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

The process

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

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

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

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

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Repairing versus replacing in Ilchester

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why Ilchester clients choose us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

See our prices page.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Signs you need tile repair in Ilchester

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Drill holes from removed fittings

What to look for in a quote

  • How long it needs to cure
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • How to care for the finish
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ilchester. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

If you’re in Ilchester and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
