Tile repair in Rushmere

How we handle tile repair in Rushmere

The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We’re often asked to fix damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles, across marble, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Before and after: damaged granite tiles repaired in place

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, 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 Rushmere. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • No need to remove anything
  • We leave the room as we found it

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

The process

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

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

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

If you’re in Rushmere and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Common questions in Rushmere

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

What information do you need?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Often, yes, if it isn’t loose.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
