Tile repair near Marshborough

Tile repair at your home in Marshborough

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. If you are dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, we can normally put it right.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Marshborough as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Marshborough

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material and finish
  • How much damage there is

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Marshborough. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours.

  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. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that will not 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Marshborough

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Your questions about tile repair in Marshborough

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Generally, if it isn’t loose.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Signs you need tile repair in Marshborough

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Cracked floor tiles
