Tile repair at your home in Moorside

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, we can help.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Moorside and across Dorset. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Common questions in Moorside

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Do I need to be at home?

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

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Do you work in Moorside?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Moorside. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire tiled area

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Moorside, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot 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

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

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
