Trusted tile repair in Lopen

When a repair is not the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we handle tile repair in Lopen

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. Typical jobs include chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, across marble, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Somerset. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lopen

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

What affects the price in Lopen

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any details about the material
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

What we do, step by step

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

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

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can
