Tile repair for Overton homes

Tile repair in Overton, done in place

We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We work on marble, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people contact us are chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • 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 you book.

Materials we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Overton

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Overton as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

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

Overton questions

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Lancashire.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

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

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.

What happens after I send pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.

Is my repair covered?

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

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  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 match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
