Common questions in Low Beechburn

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Do you cover Low Beechburn?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Low Beechburn from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What we cannot put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Low Beechburn. The price reflects:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can

Can I fix it myself?

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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
