What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included. For a rural address like Lumley, we plan the journey in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. Everything for the tile repair comes with us in one trip.

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

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space clear if you can

Tile repair in Lumley without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. We’re frequently asked to fix chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in ceramic tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles.

Rural addresses like Lumley just need a little planning, and we will organise the visit.

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Lumley

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Local notes for Lumley

If you let a flat or house near Emsworth station (in Lumley itself), we repair tiles between tenancies so it’s ready to let again quickly. In the older streets of Lumley, around landmarks like Church of St James, old tiles are hard to match, so repairing a damaged one keeps the original floor.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

FAQs for Lumley

Will you travel to Lumley?

Yes. We cover villages and hamlets as well as towns. Let us know about access and parking.

Do you take on commercial work in Lumley?

Yes, commercial work is part of what we do. Photos and a few details are enough for a quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Honest limits

We will not take on work that won’t 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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Lumley

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Older homes around Lumley may have sizes and fittings that new pieces don’t match. Repairing avoids those problems.

Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • The material, if you know it

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes cost nothing and you’re under no obligation.
