Tile repair in Luddesdown

Luddesdown: your questions answered

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Luddesdown?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DA13 postcode.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

About our tile repair in Luddesdown

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Common call-outs are for cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and marble.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How to compare quotes

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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.

What happens on the day

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Advice

Should you replace it?

Why book with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Luddesdown. The price reflects:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

If you are in Luddesdown and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
