How we handle tile repair in Newlands

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We work on natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles, and people most often call us about damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlord and trade work in Newlands

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

For anyone letting property in or around Newlands, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Questions from Newlands

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Do you cover Newlands?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Newlands. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Frequently, yes, if it is not loose.

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.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is there a guarantee?

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

Our hiring checklist

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most clients in Newlands get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What we cannot put right

  • Whole walls of failing grout

  • Marble

Repairing versus replacing in Newlands

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  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. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
