Your questions about tile repair in Wendens Ambo
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
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 you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Are there extra charges for Wendens Ambo?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- 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’ll say what we think before booking.

- Marble

Do you need tile repair in Wendens Ambo?

- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Damaged tile edges
- Cracked floor tiles
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
What to look for in a quote
- How your room will be protected

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
