Trusted tile repair in Sproughton

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Sproughton. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Sproughton. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

How we handle tile repair in Sproughton

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 will tell you. If you are dealing with damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles, we can help, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Sproughton

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sproughton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
