Trusted tile repair in Shackleford

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Tile repair in Shackleford without replacing anything

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Our repair technicians work on marble, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most often call us about discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • 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 before booking.

Questions from Shackleford

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Do you work in Shackleford?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Shackleford for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Common problems we fix in Shackleford

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Damaged tile edges

Before booking anyone

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • When it can be used again
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • What protection goes down before work starts

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

How the visit works

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a few hours, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Shackleford

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
