Trusted tile repair in Sholden

How we handle tile repair in Sholden

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Sholden questions

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you cover Sholden?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Sholden from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

When can you do it?

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

What do you need from me?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

10 questions to ask before booking

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Why book with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • No need to remove anything
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

How the visit works

We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern 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
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

Prices and what affects them

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Sholden. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any details about the material
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire tiled area, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout
