What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. 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.
Advice
Tile repair at your home in Thealby
We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. If you’re dealing with damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Landlord and trade work in Thealby
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Thealby. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DN15 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Thealby
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you cover the entire of North Lincolnshire?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. We do not 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.
