Tile repair in Walpole

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole tiled area, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Tile repair in Walpole, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help, on marble, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles alike.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not 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.

Questions from Walpole

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What happens if you find more damage?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Will it make a mess?

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

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Repair or replace in Walpole?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

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 will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a repair cannot fix

We won’t take on work that won’t 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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

The process

Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
