Tile repair in Minster without replacing anything

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. We are often asked to fix damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, on floor and wall tiles, marble and natural stone & granite.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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.

  • Floor and wall tiles

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Minster. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire tiled area

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Minster questions

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Are there extra charges for Minster?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

What we do, step by step

There is not much you need to do on the day. 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. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
