Tile repair for North Molton homes

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Tile repair in North Molton, done in place

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’ll tell you. We work on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most often call us about damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles.

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

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in North Molton, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in North Molton

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for North Molton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

How the visit works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take 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. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
