Tile repair at your home in Lower Ballam

The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can generally put it right.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

10 questions to ask before you book

Your questions about tile repair in Lower Ballam

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

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

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do you come to Lower Ballam?

We do. We send a technician to Lower Ballam for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Lower Ballam clients choose us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
