About our tile repair in Carr Hill

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Our repair technicians work on natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and marble, and people most frequently call us about chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think before you book.

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Why us?

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Carr Hill as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

If you manage property in Carr Hill, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

What affects the price in Carr Hill

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Carr Hill. The price reflects:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Most clients in Carr Hill get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Your questions about tile repair in Carr Hill

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Typically, if it is not loose.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

What happens next?

You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

How the visit works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, 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.
