Tile repair near Puddletown

Tile repair in Puddletown without replacing anything

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. We work on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Puddletown and across Dorset. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Puddletown

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Marble
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Natural stone & granite
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Ceramic tiles

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Puddletown: your questions answered

Do you come to Puddletown?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Puddletown and the rest of Dorset. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you cover the whole of Dorset?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Do you charge for travel?

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

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
