Tile repair near Workhouse Common

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Workhouse Common. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the whole tiled area

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Tile repair at your home in Workhouse Common

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, we can generally put it right, on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble alike.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Norfolk. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Choosing a repair company

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Questions from Workhouse Common

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NR12 postcode.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Workhouse Common
