Tile repair near Lowestoft

Should you replace it?

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Lowestoft. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How we handle tile repair in Lowestoft

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Our repair technicians work on floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles, and people most often call us about discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

10 questions to ask before you book

FAQs for Lowestoft

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  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. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Advice

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lowestoft

For anyone letting property in or around Lowestoft, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
