How we handle tile repair in Swarby

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you’re dealing with cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Swarby

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Often, yes, if it isn’t loose.

How much does tile repair cost in Swarby?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Are there extra charges for Swarby?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

What affects the price in Swarby

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Swarby. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Letting agents often 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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  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. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
