Repairing versus replacing in Long Street

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Tile repair in Long Street without replacing anything

We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Typical jobs include cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools, across natural stone & granite, marble and floor and wall tiles.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

10 questions to ask before booking

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Long Street. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Landlord and trade work in Long Street

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

If you manage property in Long Street, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

Long Street: your questions answered

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

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

How do I get a price for tile repair in Long Street?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your MK19 postcode.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Northamptonshire.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t 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 pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
