Tile repair in Ixworth without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges, we can typically put it right, on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles alike.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Ixworth questions

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Will it make a mess?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Ixworth.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do I have to be there?

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

Which areas do you work in?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Ixworth. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match

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

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ixworth

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
