Tile repair for Roadwater homes

Tile repair in Roadwater without replacing anything

We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We regularly repair ceramic tiles, marble and porcelain tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

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

Questions from Roadwater

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Are there extra charges for Roadwater?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

The process

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

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.

For anyone letting property in or around Roadwater, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

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 typically cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

When to call us in Roadwater

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

Comparing quotes

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included

Choosing a repair company

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Roadwater. The price reflects:

  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
