10 questions to ask before you book

Tile repair in Trull, done in place

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.

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

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, 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

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

Repairing versus replacing in Trull

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Questions from Trull

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Generally, if it is not loose.

How much does tile repair cost in Trull?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

When a repair is not the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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 before you book.
