Tile repair for Birchgrove homes

Tile repair in Birchgrove, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Typical jobs include damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, across natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles.

Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

10 questions to ask before you book

Repair or replace in Birchgrove?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

What affects the price in Birchgrove

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The material and finish
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Birchgrove. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

Your questions about tile repair in Birchgrove

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire tiled area and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Can I fix it myself?

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, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
