Tile repair for Yanwath homes

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take 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. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.

About our tile repair in Yanwath

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Our technicians work on ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is 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 pictures.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Common questions in Yanwath

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Yanwath.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

How soon can you come?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. 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.

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair 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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • The material, if you know it

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Landlord and trade work in Yanwath

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
