Tile repair near Shirrell Heath

Tile repair in Shirrell Heath without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. We’re frequently asked to fix drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and marble.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How to compare quotes

Common questions in Shirrell Heath

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

What happens after I send photos?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Shirrell Heath. What changes the price is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it 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 combining items on one visit brings it down.

Landlord and trade work in Shirrell Heath

For anyone letting property in or around Shirrell Heath, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shirrell Heath use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

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