Tile repair in Ruscombe

Tile repair at your home in Ruscombe

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 work on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble, and people most frequently call us about damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we do, step by step

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Repair or replace in Ruscombe?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Ruscombe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Common questions in Ruscombe

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Frequently, yes, if it isn’t loose.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you come to Ruscombe?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Ruscombe. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
