How we handle tile repair in Babel Green

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Our technicians work on porcelain tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles, and people most frequently call us about damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Our hiring checklist

Babel Green: your questions answered

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Generally, if it isn’t loose.

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Babel Green?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your CO10 postcode.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Landlord and trade work in Babel Green

If you manage property in Babel Green, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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

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

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
