Tile repair for Loans homes

Common questions in Loans

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Usually, if it isn’t loose.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Loans included. There is no extra charge for travel.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Loans?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Tile repair at your home in Loans

A loose or rocking tile 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. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace in Loans?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why Loans customers choose us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

See our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  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. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What tile repair costs

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Loans, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t 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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
