Sandfields East questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Are there extra charges for Sandfields East?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

How much does tile repair cost in Sandfields East?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

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

Tile repair in Sandfields East, done in place

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We’re frequently asked to fix damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, on ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and marble.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to compare quotes

Landlord and trade work in Sandfields East

If you manage property in Sandfields East, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we work on in Sandfields East

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
