How we handle tile repair in North Burlingham

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 will say so. If you are dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can typically put it right.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

North Burlingham: your questions answered

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Usually, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Can you quote from pictures?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

How to get a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Signs you need tile repair in North Burlingham

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Repairing versus replacing in North Burlingham

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What affects the price in North Burlingham

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs

Quotes from your photos

  • The material, if you know it
