Tile repair in Springbourne

How we handle tile repair in Springbourne

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. Typical jobs include drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How the visit works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the tile and remove 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. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Springbourne customers choose us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Landlord and trade work in Springbourne

If you manage property in Springbourne, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Springbourne questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Do you work in Springbourne?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Springbourne and the rest of Bournemouth. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of Bournemouth. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your BH1 postcode.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Generally, if it is not loose.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Springbourne. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
