Trusted tile repair in Tollesbury

Tile repair at your home in Tollesbury

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, we can typically put it right, on floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles alike.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Tollesbury and across Essex. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many items we do on one visit

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole tiled area

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Tollesbury: your questions answered

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Landlord and trade work in Tollesbury

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

What we cannot put right

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns 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 the room is left clean and tidy.

  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 recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
