Tile repair in Long Marston

Tile repair at your home in Long Marston

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Our technicians work on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles, and people most frequently call us about drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlord and trade work in Long Marston

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

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What affects the price in Long Marston

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Long Marston. The price depends on:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What kind of damage it is

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

We price from photos 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.

Common problems we fix in Long Marston

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  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. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, 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

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

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.

Repair or replace in Long Marston?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Questions from Long Marston

Are there extra charges for Long Marston?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you work in Long Marston?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Long Marston. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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