Your questions about tile repair in Middlethorpe

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your YO23 postcode.

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 quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

What areas do you cover?

We cover the whole UK, including Middlethorpe and the rest of York. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Tile repair in Middlethorpe, done in place

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, on floor and wall tiles, marble and ceramic tiles.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How to compare quotes

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.

  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. We seal the repair to suit the finish of 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
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

DIY kit or professional 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, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Any details about the material
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
