What affects the price in Ingestre

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Ingestre. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Common questions in Ingestre

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Are there extra charges for Ingestre?

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

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

The process

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing 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. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Ingestre, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
