How we handle tile repair in Tollerford

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We work on porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people contact us are chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Dorset. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d 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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Tollerford

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Tollerford. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any details about the material

If you are in Tollerford and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

10 questions to ask before booking

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
