Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Sandiacre. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the whole tiled area

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

About our tile repair in Sandiacre

We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. If you are dealing with cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, we can help, on marble, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles alike.

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.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Sandiacre

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

Repair or replace in Sandiacre?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Work done at your home or business
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Sandiacre questions

Are there extra charges for Sandiacre?

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

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Frequently, yes, if it is not loose.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • 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.

What we work on

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