Tile repair in Sandwell

About our tile repair in Sandwell

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We’re often asked to fix damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles, on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

10 questions to ask before you book

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will 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. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Landlord and trade work in Sandwell

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

FAQs for Sandwell

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What do you need from me?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Sandwell included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Do you cover Sandwell?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Sandwell from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Frequently, yes, if it is not loose.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your B66 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
