Tile repair for Arborfield homes

About our tile repair in Arborfield

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

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Honest limits

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Ceramic tiles

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Compared with replacing, 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.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Repairing versus replacing in Arborfield

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Arborfield customers choose us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • One-year guarantee on every repair

Landlords, agents and businesses in Arborfield

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For anyone letting property in or around Arborfield, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy.

  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

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
