Overstone: your questions answered

Will the price change on the day?

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Overstone and the rest of Northamptonshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Overstone. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How we handle tile repair in Overstone

We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We’re frequently asked to fix damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles, on natural stone & granite, marble and ceramic tiles.

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

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

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

Clients generally contact us about:

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

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Who turns up on the day

How to compare quotes

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What we do, step by step

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 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. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • Any details about the material

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NN6 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Repair or replace: which is better?
