About our tile repair in Thornton Curtis

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 porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

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 normally takes a few hours. 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. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Ask for a price

There’s 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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Thornton Curtis. What changes the price is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Thornton Curtis. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Thornton Curtis questions

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of North Lincolnshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

What does tile repair cost?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Choosing a repair company

What a repair cannot fix

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
