Tile repair in Rodbourne without replacing anything

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, in marble, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Rodbourne and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Rodbourne

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

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

Rodbourne: your questions answered

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Frequently, yes, if it is not loose.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Are you accredited?

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

Do you work in Rodbourne?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Rodbourne. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

When we’d advise against a repair

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot 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’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Rodbourne. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Repairing versus replacing in Rodbourne

Replacing a 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 is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
