Tile repair at your home in Oldford

We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. Our repair technicians work on marble, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Oldford

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Oldford. What changes the price is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What the surface is made of

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Marble

Oldford questions

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

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you price it without visiting?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Do you work in Oldford?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Oldford and the rest of Somerset. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Often, yes, if it isn’t loose.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Repairing versus replacing in Oldford

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it 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 Oldford. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Why us?

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • A fixed quote before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to get a price

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
