Tile repair in Liston

Tile repair at your home in Liston

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, marble and ceramic tiles, and people most frequently call us about damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Liston and across Suffolk. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Liston

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Liston as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

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

Liston questions

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, and that includes Liston. Prices don’t change with location.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Liston. The price reflects:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Liston. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
