Tile repair for Upton homes

What tile repair costs

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

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it

Most customers in Upton get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Tile repair at your home in Upton

The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help, on ceramic tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles alike.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lincolnshire. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repairing versus replacing in Upton

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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