Trusted tile repair in Lawford

For landlords and businesses

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

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Lawford as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

About our tile repair in Lawford

The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help, whatever the material.

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

Questions from Lawford

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

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

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do you cover the whole of Somerset?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Are there extra charges for Lawford?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

10 questions to ask before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Lawford. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

When a repair is not the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
