About our tile repair in Maiden Law

The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We work on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most frequently call us about drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Maiden Law: your questions answered

What happens next?

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

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Is repairing better than replacing?

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

Do you cover the whole of County Durham?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

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.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Landlord and trade work in Maiden Law

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Maiden Law use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair 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

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Maiden Law. The price reflects:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

If you’re in Maiden Law and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we work on in Maiden Law

  • Porcelain tiles
  • Marble
  • Ceramic tiles
  • Natural stone & granite

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Maiden Law. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
