Tile repair in Alfington

Tile repair at your home in Alfington

A loose or rocking tile 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 porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most often call us about chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we do, step by step

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Alfington. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How much damage there is
  • What kind of damage it is

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Questions from Alfington

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Do you work in Alfington?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Alfington from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Does someone need to be in?

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

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

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