Tile repair for South Acre homes

Tile repair in South Acre, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles, across natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles.

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

How it works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Advice

What we are called out for in South Acre

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Damaged tile edges

Comparing quotes

  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How soon you can use it again

Choosing a repair company

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • The type of damage
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

If you’re in South Acre and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Landlord and trade work in South Acre

For anyone letting property in or around South Acre, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

Repair or replace in South Acre?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

  • Rooms protected and left tidy

When we would advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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