Tile repair for Plumpton homes

Tile repair in Plumpton without replacing anything

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on porcelain tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders

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

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Plumpton as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Plumpton. The price reflects:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

You do not need a survey visit. 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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Repairing versus replacing in Plumpton

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

FAQs for Plumpton

Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Typically, if it is not loose.

How much does tile repair cost in Plumpton?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

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