Landlord and trade work in Ventnor
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Ventnor as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

How we handle tile repair in Ventnor
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. If you are dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, we can help, on marble, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Ventnor
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Ventnor: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you cover the entire of Isle of Wight?
Across the UK, so Ventnor is covered. Prices don’t change with location.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
