Trusted tile repair in Pointon

Repair or replace in Pointon?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Replacement in Pointon means trades, travel and waste removal, while a repair is a single visit.

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How we handle tile repair in Pointon

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Our technicians work on marble, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people get in touch are drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools.

In a village like Pointon, older homes may have tiled or wooden floors that have been down for years, so a replacement rarely matches. A repair keeps what you have.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Signs you need tile repair in Pointon

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

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

In the older streets of Pointon, around landmarks like Christchurch, original tiled floors and fireplaces are worth keeping, and chips and cracks can be repaired in place.

How to compare quotes

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Quotes cost nothing and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size

Most customers in Pointon get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Your questions about tile repair in Pointon

Do you come out to small places like Pointon?

Yes, we do: Pointon is covered like any town. Tell us if access is tricky.

My house in Pointon is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?

Typically, yes. Older tiles are often worth repairing rather than replacing. Photos let us tell you what we’d recommend.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Generally, if it is not loose.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it. Somewhere as small as Pointon, access is generally the main thing to plan. Once we’re there, the tile repair works exactly as anywhere else.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
