Trusted tile repair in Upper Birchwood

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • One price list for the entire UK
  • No need to remove anything
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

About our tile repair in Upper Birchwood

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Common call-outs are for chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, across floor and wall tiles, marble and porcelain tiles.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price 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 quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Upper Birchwood, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Upper Birchwood

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Common problems we fix in Upper Birchwood

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

Look out for any of the following:

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

Questions to ask before booking

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • How soon you can use it again
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether the price covers travel

10 questions to ask before you book

What a repair can’t fix

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair 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.

Surfaces we repair

  • Natural stone & granite
  • Ceramic tiles

Upper Birchwood questions

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you work in Upper Birchwood?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Upper Birchwood for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

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

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  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. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Ask for a price

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 over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

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.
