Tile repair in Yarley

Tile repair at your home in Yarley

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite.

Peace of mind is built in: 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.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Questions from Yarley

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back, usually with dates to choose from. You are under no obligation.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Do I have to be there?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

How to compare quotes

What tile repair costs

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

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Repairing versus replacing in Yarley

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colour-matched on site

What happens on the day

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage

Honest limits

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Landlords, agents and businesses in Yarley

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

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