Landlord and trade work in Little Broughton
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Little Broughton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
How we handle tile repair in Little Broughton
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on marble, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles, and people most often call us about cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Look out for these signs:

- Drill holes from removed fittings

The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Questions from Little Broughton
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Cumbria, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you come to Little Broughton?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Little Broughton. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Little Broughton?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CA13 postcode.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
