How we handle tile repair in Bestwood St Albans

We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Common call-outs are for damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, in marble, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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’ll get a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

What a repair can’t fix

We won’t take on work 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

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Bestwood St Albans

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Access to the area

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know

If you are in Bestwood St Albans and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access

Get a quote

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
