Need tile repair in Thorpe in the Glebe?

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, 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. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Tile repair at your home in Thorpe in the Glebe

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Common call-outs are for drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across marble, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Nottinghamshire. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • We leave the room as we found it

Thorpe in the Glebe questions

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you quote from photos?

Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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’ll say what we think before you book.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Thorpe in the Glebe

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.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
