How it works

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

10 questions to ask before booking

Repairing versus replacing in Biggin Hill

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

FAQs for Biggin Hill

What happens if you find more damage?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Typically, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Do you cover Biggin Hill?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Biggin Hill. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Greater London.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Landlord and trade work in Biggin Hill

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Biggin Hill as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area

Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Biggin Hill, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
