What else we do in Abinger Common
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
The process
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
