Tile repair in Basildon, done in place
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you’re dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.
How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
For anyone letting property in or around Basildon, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout

What else we do in Basildon
Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why us?
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Colour-matched on site
- Everything repaired in place
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
Do you need tile repair in Basildon?
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Common reasons people in Basildon contact us are:
- Cracked floor tiles
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace

What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Ensure the area is dry

Basildon questions

Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
