Tile repair in Puddledock

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Puddledock use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

About our tile repair in Puddledock

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. If you are dealing with chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges, we can help, on porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and marble alike.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

How it works

When we visit, 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 few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

FAQs for Puddledock

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

What does tile repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Repair or replace in Puddledock?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

10 questions to ask before you book

What affects the price in Puddledock

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Puddledock. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your pictures

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Honest limits

We will not 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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
