What affects the price in Papplewick

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • The material

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Tile repair in Papplewick, done in place

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can typically put it right, on ceramic tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

FAQs for Papplewick

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you cover the entire of Nottinghamshire?

We cover the whole UK, including Papplewick and the rest of Nottinghamshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

There’s no need for us to visit first. 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.

Related advice

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

When a repair is not the answer

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 photos and we’ll say what we think.

Landlord and trade work in Papplewick

If you manage property in Papplewick, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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.

When to call us in Papplewick

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Drill holes from removed fittings

  • Cracked floor tiles
