Tile repair at your home in Somerton

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. If you are dealing with damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can normally put it right, on marble, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite alike.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Somerton and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

How it works

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  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 recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. 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.

Advice

Your questions about tile repair in Somerton

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Frequently, yes, if it isn’t loose.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK, so Somerton is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

How quickly can you book me in?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Repairing versus replacing in Somerton

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why us?

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • No need to remove anything

See our prices page.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
