Landlords, agents and businesses in Longnor

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

If you manage property in Longnor, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

How we handle tile repair in Longnor

We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help, on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and marble alike.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Longnor. The price comes down to:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
