Tile repair in Windhill

About our tile repair in Windhill

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Typical jobs include cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, in ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Our hiring checklist

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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.

What we can’t 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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Marble
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Ceramic tiles

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The material
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once

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.

Send photos for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting 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 reply with a fixed quote.

Common questions in Windhill

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is my repair covered?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Can you repair several things at once?

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