Tile repair in Minting

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

About our tile repair in Minting

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 will say so. Typical jobs include cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools, in natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and marble.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Minting as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Minting

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Minting. The price depends on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Minting. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

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

Signs you need tile repair in Minting

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

The things clients generally mention when they call include:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

Questions to ask before you book

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What happens if they find more damage

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The process

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  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.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repairing versus replacing in Minting

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
