About our tile repair in North Shore

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, we can help.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to North Shore. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back

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

Common problems we fix in North Shore

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

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • Aftercare advice
  • If travel is included in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

How to compare quotes

Landlords, agents and businesses in North Shore

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in North Shore use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Your questions about tile repair in North Shore

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

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

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for North Shore. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

How it works

You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the area is dry

Advice

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
