Tile repair at your home in Little Wigborough

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If you’re dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, we can help, on marble, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Little Wigborough: your questions answered

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Will it make a mess?

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

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 I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

How much does tile repair cost in Little Wigborough?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your CO5 postcode.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Landlord and trade work in Little Wigborough

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
