Need tile repair in Wixams?

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Tile repair at your home in Wixams

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We’re often asked to fix damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, on floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

For landlords and businesses

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For anyone letting property in or around Wixams, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Common problems we fix in Wixams

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

You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:

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

What your quote should include

  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included

10 questions to ask before booking

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 will say what we think before you book.

Common questions in Wixams

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Wixams.

Is the work guaranteed?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
