Our hiring checklist

About our tile repair in Midway

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Common call-outs are for discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, on marble, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Repairing versus replacing in Midway

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What you get with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No need to remove anything

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes

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. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it

Most customers in Midway get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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 will say what we think.

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

Midway questions

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

How soon can you come?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners in Midway.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Do you cover the entire of Derbyshire?

Everywhere in the UK, Midway included. There is no extra charge for travel.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Midway?

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DE11 postcode.

Are there extra charges for Midway?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

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