Tile repair near Whetsted

Tile repair in Whetsted, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, marble and ceramic tiles, and common reasons people contact us are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Before and after: damaged granite tiles repaired in place

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

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

What we cannot put right

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Materials we repair

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

How it works

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Questions from Whetsted

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you work in Whetsted?

We do. We send a technician to Whetsted for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

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

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.

Is my repair covered?

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

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What affects the price in Whetsted

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Whetsted. The price reflects:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The size and number of damaged areas

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole tiled area

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

When to call us in Whetsted

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Common reasons people in Whetsted contact us include:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges

What your quote should include

  • How the colour is matched
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
