Tile repair at your home in Babraham

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. We work on ceramic tiles, marble and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people get in touch are damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

Landlord and trade work in Babraham

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Babraham as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cambridgeshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Repairing versus replacing in Babraham

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are

Common questions in Babraham

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Do you charge for travel?

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

How do I get a price for tile repair in Babraham?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

What we do, step by step

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Babraham. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

We price from pictures 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 you will get a fixed figure back.
