Tile repair in Thurnscoe without replacing anything

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair marble, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

Advice

Common questions in Thurnscoe

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

How much does tile repair cost in Thurnscoe?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your S63 postcode.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Repair or replace in Thurnscoe?

Swapping out a damaged 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. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to compare quotes

What we can’t put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. 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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Materials we work on in Thurnscoe

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How much damage there is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material

Most clients in Thurnscoe get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
