Tile repair in Overcombe, done in place

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Repair or replace in Overcombe?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Overcombe. The price comes down to:

  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the entire tiled area

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Overcombe, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Questions from Overcombe

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
