Trusted tile repair in Sewstern

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Tile repair at your home in Sewstern

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If you’re dealing with chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Sewstern. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  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 recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Your questions about tile repair in Sewstern

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Do you work in Sewstern?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Sewstern. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Will there be a smell?

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

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Sewstern

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
