Tile repair in Iron Acton without replacing anything

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. We work on floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles, and people most frequently call us about discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Your questions about tile repair in Iron Acton

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you work in Iron Acton?

We do. We send a technician to Iron Acton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Iron Acton. The price comes down to:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What a repair can’t fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in South Gloucestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage
