Tile repair in Skipwith

Tile repair in Skipwith without replacing anything

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. Typical jobs include damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, on floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Why us?

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Same prices wherever you are

Take a look at our prices page.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Skipwith. The price reflects:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Questions from Skipwith

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Typically, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Will there be a smell?

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

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Are there extra charges for Skipwith?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
