Tile repair for Knightsmill homes

Tile repair in Knightsmill, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If you are dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can typically put it right.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Our hiring checklist

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

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

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

When a repair isn’t the answer

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

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. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Work done at your home or business
  • We leave the room as we found it

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Knightsmill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PL30 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
