Trusted tile repair in Trentishoe

Tile repair in Trentishoe, done in place

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Common call-outs are for damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, on porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

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 quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Trentishoe

For anyone letting property in or around Trentishoe, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

When we would advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot 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.

Materials we work on in Trentishoe

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

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Get a quote

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
