Tile repair near Wolvey

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Tile repair in Wolvey, done in place

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our technicians work on porcelain tiles, marble and natural stone & granite, and people most often call us about cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools.

Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What affects the price in Wolvey

Do you need tile repair in Wolvey?

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

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Cracked floor tiles

What to look for in a quote

  • When it can be used again
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What prep work is covered

10 questions to ask before you book

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Wolvey

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wolvey use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
