Tile repair for Ludwell homes

How we handle tile repair in Ludwell

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, we can typically put it right, on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite alike.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

For landlords and businesses

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we can’t put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Ludwell

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

What affects the price in Ludwell

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Send pictures for a quote

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

  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What we’re called out for in Ludwell

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Drill holes from removed fittings

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Questions from Ludwell

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Do you cover the whole of Dorset?

The entire UK, including all of Dorset. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
