Landlord and trade work in Ruthven
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
About our tile repair in Ruthven
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Our repair technicians work on floor and wall tiles, marble and ceramic tiles, and common reasons people contact us are drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Common questions in Ruthven
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Frequently, yes, if it isn’t loose.
Do you work in Ruthven?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Ruthven. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What affects the price in Ruthven
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Ruthven. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
