Tile repair in Balscote, done in place

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Common call-outs are for chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, across floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and marble.

All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the tile and remove 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. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know about parking or access

Related advice

Repair or replace in Balscote?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour-matched on site

See our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

  • Porcelain tiles
  • Marble
  • Natural stone & granite
