Tile repair in Swyre

Repairing versus replacing in Swyre

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

About our tile repair in Swyre

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people contact us are damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we do, step by step

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Swyre. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • Any details about the material

For a price in Swyre, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
