Tile repair at your home in Blackwall

The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We regularly repair porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles, and common reasons people contact us are chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

Repair or replace in Blackwall?

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to compare quotes

How we price tile repair

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

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any details about the material

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

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Greater London and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Ask for a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer
