How we handle tile repair in Russland

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, in natural stone & granite, marble and ceramic tiles.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Common problems we fix in Russland

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the colour is matched
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Our hiring checklist

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Russland

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

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
