Tile repair in Trostre

About our tile repair in Trostre

The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Trostre

Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Trostre. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Trostre. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

Repairing versus replacing in Trostre

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Trostre use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

If you manage property in Trostre, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
