Tile repair for Taxal homes

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Tile repair at your home in Taxal

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We work on marble, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Choosing a repair company

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.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

How the visit 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 few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  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. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the area is dry

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Common questions in Taxal

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

What do you need from me?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Taxal. What changes the price is:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you’re in Taxal and want a price, 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.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
