Tile repair for Ruddington homes

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No need to remove anything

Tile repair in Ruddington without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on ceramic tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles, and people most often call us about drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A picture taken from further back

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 you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Common questions in Ruddington

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Typically, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

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

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Ruddington

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ruddington 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’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will arrange it.

Can I fix it myself?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
