How we handle tile repair in Angel

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We’re often asked to fix drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, on floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Angel. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Most clients in Angel get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Common questions in Angel

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

Will the price change on the day?

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

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Greater London. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire tiled area and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Greater London.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Do you need tile repair in Angel?

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges

Our hiring checklist

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Why us?

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Work for landlords and builders

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing 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. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Getting a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
