Tile repair in Shillinglee

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a 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. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

About our tile repair in Shillinglee

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Whether it’s damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Send photos for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

For a price in Shillinglee, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Shillinglee questions

Do you charge for travel?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Typically, if it isn’t loose.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Can I add another job to the visit?

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

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shillinglee as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not 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 photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
