How we handle tile repair in Mawnan

The tile stays where it is, 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’re dealing with cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, we can help.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace in Mawnan?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Work for landlords and builders

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Mawnan questions

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Frequently, yes, if it isn’t loose.

Do I have to be there?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it messy?

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

Can tenants book a repair?

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

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Mawnan, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Advice

Can I fix it myself?

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

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Signs you need tile repair in Mawnan

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Drill holes from removed fittings

What tile repair costs

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
