About our tile repair in Shottle

We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

Shottle: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Can landlords book you?

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

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Do you work in Shottle?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Shottle from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can you quote from pictures?

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Repair or replace in Shottle?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

What affects the price in Shottle

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Shottle. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What kind of damage it is

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
