Trusted tile repair in Charlton

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Charlton. What changes the price is:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash

For a price in Charlton, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Tile repair in Charlton, done in place

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, we can help.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Charlton as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Same prices wherever you are

Landlord and trade work in Charlton

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Charlton use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Ceramic tiles
  • Marble
  • Porcelain tiles

How the visit works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
