FAQs for Kirkby Malzeard

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Do you cover the entire of North Yorkshire?

The whole UK, including all of North Yorkshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How much does tile repair cost in Kirkby Malzeard?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your HG4 postcode.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

About our tile repair in Kirkby Malzeard

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Typical jobs include drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, on marble, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Kirkby Malzeard

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Prices and what affects them

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
