How we handle tile repair in Lower Green

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on floor and wall tiles, marble and natural stone & granite, and people most often call us about drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

What we can’t put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

FAQs for Lower Green

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Lower Green?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you work in Lower Green?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Lower Green from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.

What affects the price in Lower Green

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Lower Green. The price reflects:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material

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

When to call us in Lower Green

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Damaged tile edges
