Tile repair for Rousdon homes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Tile repair in Rousdon without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If you’re dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, we can help.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

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

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 will tell you honestly before you book.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

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. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Rousdon

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rousdon use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a few hours. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. 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.
