Tile repair in Basted

Tile repair in Basted, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. Our repair technicians work on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most often call us about discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.

Choosing a repair company

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Basted clients choose us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

See our prices page.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.

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

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Common questions in Basted

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Kent.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Landlord and trade work in Basted

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
