Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace in Low Moorsley?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Low Moorsley. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why Low Moorsley clients choose us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

Take a look at our full price list.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A picture taken from further back
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole tiled area, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Questions from Low Moorsley

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Can you quote from photos?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Typically, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  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 recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
