Trusted tile repair in Waingroves

Tile repair at your home in Waingroves

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We work on natural stone & granite, marble and ceramic tiles, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

10 questions to ask before booking

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No need to remove anything
  • Same prices wherever you are

Take a look at our prices page.

When we’d advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Your questions about tile repair in Waingroves

Are there extra charges for Waingroves?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DE5 postcode.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What affects the price in Waingroves

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
