Tile repair near Wood Seats

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

How we handle tile repair in Wood Seats

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. If you are dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can generally put it right, on marble, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles alike.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Wood Seats. The price comes down to:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your S35 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Signs you need tile repair in Wood Seats

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles

10 questions to ask before you book

What a repair cannot fix

A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wood Seats

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Repairing versus replacing in Wood Seats

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. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
