Tile repair at your home in Apsley End

The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Apsley End. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Most customers in Apsley End get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Questions from Apsley End

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

How do I book?

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

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you quote from pictures?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
