Tile repair for Symondsbury homes

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

About our tile repair in Symondsbury

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, we can help, whatever the material.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Symondsbury: your questions answered

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do you come to Symondsbury?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Symondsbury from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Typically, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Do you cover the whole of Dorset?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Symondsbury. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

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.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
