Our hiring checklist

Tile repair in Three Legged Cross, done in place

The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Typical jobs include discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, in ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What happens on the day

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Advice

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

  • Ceramic tiles
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Marble
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Natural stone & granite

Three Legged Cross: your questions answered

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

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

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Are you accredited?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

What happens if you find more damage?

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

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Three Legged Cross. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Any details about the material

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
