Tile repair near Kexby

Tile repair in Kexby, done in place

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. Typical jobs include cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, on porcelain tiles, marble and natural stone & granite.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Lincolnshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Common questions in Kexby

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you come to Kexby?

We do. Technicians travel to Kexby from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

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

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos 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

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Signs you need tile repair in Kexby

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Damaged tile edges
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Cracked floor tiles

What to look for in a quote

  • How to care for the finish
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • If travel is included in the price

Choosing a repair company

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  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. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
