Tile repair in Boyton Cross without replacing anything

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. We’re often asked to fix drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Common questions in Boyton Cross

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Are there extra charges for Boyton Cross?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

When we would advise against a repair

We won’t take on work that will not 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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How the colour is matched

Our hiring checklist

Work for landlords and builders

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.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

What affects the price in Boyton Cross

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Boyton Cross. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Boyton Cross, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
