Trusted tile repair in Trelew

Landlord and trade work in Trelew

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How we handle tile repair in Trelew

The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We work on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles, and people most frequently call us about cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Trelew. What changes the price is:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:

  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

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

When a repair is not the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:

  • 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 will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Trelew questions

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cornwall.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

What happens if you find more damage?

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

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Trelew. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No need to remove anything
  • Same prices wherever you are
