Tile repair near Ulting

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

About our tile repair in Ulting

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 will say so. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help, on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles alike.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Ulting questions

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Do you work in Ulting?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Ulting. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What we’re called out for in Ulting

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools

Before you book anyone

  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What preparation is included

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Ulting

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • How much damage there is

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • The material, if you know it

You don’t 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 will reply with a fixed price.
