Trusted tile repair in Scotter

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Scotter as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Tile repair in Scotter, done in place

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’ll say so. Our technicians work on natural stone & granite, marble and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

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

Questions from Scotter

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot 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 pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
