How we handle tile repair in Longley

The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We work on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people contact us are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Longley and across Sheffield. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Longley questions

Are there extra charges for Longley?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you cover the entire of Sheffield?

We cover the entire UK, including Longley and the rest of Sheffield. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will it make a mess?

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

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • 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 before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Longley clients choose us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour-matched on site

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Open a window if you can

Ask for a price

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Longley, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
