How to compare quotes

Tile repair at your home in Tiln

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We’re often asked to fix cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, on porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and marble.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What happens on the day

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Tiln questions

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Tiln?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Nottinghamshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Tiln

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Tiln. The price reflects:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Natural light rather than flash

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair 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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
