How to compare quotes

Tile repair at your home in West Street

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 will say so. If you’re dealing with cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help, whatever the material.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Suffolk. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlord and trade work in West Street

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Quotes from your pictures

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Most customers in West Street get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Honest limits

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly before booking.

West Street questions

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

What does tile repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your IP31 postcode.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Repair or replace in West Street?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
