Tile repair for Yaverland homes

Tile repair at your home in Yaverland

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We regularly repair natural stone & granite, marble and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Yaverland as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • The material
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Common problems we fix in Yaverland

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Most people contact us when they notice one of these:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Aftercare advice

Questions from Yaverland

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you charge for travel?

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

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Repairing versus replacing in Yaverland

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  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. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t 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

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

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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

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 usually the cheaper route.
