Shipton Solars: your questions answered

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is there a call-out fee?

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

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Shipton Solars. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your GL54 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

The process

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit 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 photos.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • 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 photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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