How we handle tile repair in Longstowe

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 say so. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help, on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles alike.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Longstowe and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Choosing a repair company

Longstowe: your questions answered

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

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.

Do you cover the entire of Cambridgeshire?

We work UK-wide, so Longstowe is covered. Prices do not change with location.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Are you accredited?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Do you come to Longstowe?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Longstowe from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What we can’t put right

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 before booking.

What we work on

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

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Longstowe as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Repairing versus replacing in Longstowe

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

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