Trusted tile repair in Shute

Tile repair at your home in Shute

A loose or rocking tile 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 are often asked to fix chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, in ceramic tiles, marble and porcelain tiles.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Shute and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we’re called out for in Shute

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

What to look for in a quote

  • Aftercare advice
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Who will actually do the work
  • If travel is included in the price

How to compare quotes

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Questions from Shute

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do you cover Shute?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Shute from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Shute. The price comes down to:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

How it works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave 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. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
