Tile repair in Allt, done in place

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Common call-outs are for chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in marble, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we cannot put right

We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • 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

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

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Allt. What changes the price is:

  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Signs you need tile repair in Allt

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

The most common problems we’re called about are:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

What to look for in a quote

  • When it can be used again
  • How your room will be protected
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How changes to the job are handled

Choosing a repair company

Allt: your questions answered

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Generally, if it isn’t loose.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

What areas do you cover?

We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
