About our tile repair in Uppertown

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. We’re often asked to fix damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, across ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Derbyshire. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Uppertown

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Clear the area around the damage

Advice

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • 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 you book.

Materials we work on in Uppertown

  • Ceramic tiles
  • Floor and wall tiles

Common problems we fix in Uppertown

Look out for these signs:

  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Drill holes from removed fittings

Before booking anyone

  • How to care for the finish

10 questions to ask before booking

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
