About our tile repair in Verwood

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We are frequently asked to fix drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, in floor and wall tiles, marble and ceramic tiles.

Floors and tiles in Verwood take plenty of daily wear, and chips and scratches are common. They’re repaired in place.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Verwood as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Verwood

My house in Verwood is a period property. Is the original worth keeping?

Generally, yes. Older tiles are often worth repairing rather than replacing. Photos let us tell you what we would recommend.

Do you work for schools and businesses in Verwood?

Yes, commercial work is part of what we do. Send pictures and details of the building.

Do you work in Verwood?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Verwood from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What areas do you cover?

All of Dorset, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

The process

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included. In a town like Verwood, most homes have a driveway or nearby street parking, so arranging the visit is straightforward. Tell us if the tiled area is upstairs or in a flat.

  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. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Make sure the area is dry

Getting a price

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Repair or replace in Verwood?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. In a town like Verwood, a replacement may not match the rest of the room, while a repair keeps everything as it is.

Our tile repair starts from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Verwood. What changes the price is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed quote

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

When we would advise against a repair

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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.

Materials we work on in Verwood

  • Marble
  • Floor and wall tiles
