Plumgarths questions

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Plumgarths?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your LA8 postcode.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

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.

Do you cover Plumgarths?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Plumgarths from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Tile repair in Plumgarths, done in place

The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. If you’re dealing with damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Choosing a repair company

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  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. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

If you manage property in Plumgarths, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

What a repair can’t fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we work on in Plumgarths

  • Porcelain tiles
  • Natural stone & granite
  • Marble

  • Ceramic tiles

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
