Book tile repair in Lidgate

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Tile repair in Lidgate without replacing anything

We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We’re often asked to fix discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, in floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and marble.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Choosing a repair company

Lidgate: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can tenants book a repair?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Do you cover Lidgate?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Lidgate. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you cover the entire of Cambridgeshire?

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

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Lidgate

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
