Tile repair for Lythe homes

Tile repair in Lythe, done in place

We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. Our technicians work on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How the visit works

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Common questions in Lythe

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Repair or replace in Lythe?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to compare quotes

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

What tile repair costs

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

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

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

Honest limits

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
