Tile repair near Lower Writhlington

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Lower Writhlington. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Tile repair in Lower Writhlington without replacing anything

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Common call-outs are for discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • 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 will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Our hiring checklist

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lower Writhlington

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a few hours.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  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. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BA3 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
