How we handle tile repair in Kildary

The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We work on floor and wall tiles, marble and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Kildary. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Kildary as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  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. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Common questions in Kildary

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

How do I book?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Kildary included. Travel is included in the price.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Common problems we fix in Kildary

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

Before booking anyone

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
