Tile repair near Upper Cotton

Tile repair at your home in Upper Cotton

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help, on marble, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles alike.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Take a look at our full price list.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  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. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

When to call us in Upper Cotton

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace

10 questions to ask before booking

Upper Cotton questions

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Do you work in Upper Cotton?

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

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote. You’re under no obligation.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Upper Cotton. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

What a repair cannot fix

Some jobs are not 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

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
