About our tile repair in Sturminster Newton

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Typical jobs include drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, across ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Common problems we fix in Sturminster Newton

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

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

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles

Choosing a repair company

Common questions in Sturminster Newton

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Can landlords book you?

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

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you cover Sturminster Newton?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Sturminster Newton and the rest of Dorset. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

What tile repair costs

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

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
