Tile repair in Woodland

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

If you’re in Woodland and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How we handle tile repair in Woodland

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 tell you. If you’re dealing with damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Woodland

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile 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 pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What you get with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Same prices wherever you are

Landlord and trade work in Woodland

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.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

What happens on the day

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
