Tile repair for Westleton homes

How we handle tile repair in Westleton

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. If you’re dealing with chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges, we can help, whatever the material.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What the surface is made of
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Most customers in Westleton get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Questions from Westleton

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

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

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Is it messy?

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

Is a repair better than a new one?

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

How do I book?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.

Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?

We cover the whole UK, including Westleton and the rest of Suffolk. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Most jobs done in one visit

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know about parking or access

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
