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. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Walcot: your questions answered

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Is my repair covered?

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

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Generally, if it isn’t loose.

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

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

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Landlords, agents and businesses in Walcot

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
