Tile repair for Nadderwater homes

How we handle tile repair in Nadderwater

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Common questions in Nadderwater

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

Do you come to Nadderwater?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Nadderwater from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Will there be a smell?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Nadderwater. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
