Tile repair in Saxtead Green without replacing anything

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles, and people most frequently call us about cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Saxtead Green

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

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

Your questions about tile repair in Saxtead Green

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How much does tile repair cost in Saxtead Green?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Saxtead Green

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Saxtead Green as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Should I try a DIY kit 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 typically cheaper.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
