FAQs for Little Bosullow

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Tile repair in Little Bosullow, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you’re dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, we can generally put it right, on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Little Bosullow

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Quotes from your photos

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area

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

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What happens on the day

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Landlord and trade work in Little Bosullow

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
