Tile repair for Alton homes

Can I fix it myself?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

Tile repair at your home in Alton

The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Typical jobs include chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges, on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Alton and across Hampshire. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • 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 will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Alton. The price reflects:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  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. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Questions from Alton

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

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

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What happens after I send photos?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Does someone need to be in?
