About our tile repair in Chiddingly

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. We regularly repair natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools.

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.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

When a repair is not the answer

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 before booking.

Questions from Chiddingly

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

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.

How much does tile repair cost in Chiddingly?

Prices start from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your BN8 postcode.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

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.

Do you cover Chiddingly?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Chiddingly and the rest of East Sussex. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Landlord and trade work in Chiddingly

Choosing a repair company

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours.

  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. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

Most customers in Chiddingly get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area
  • How many areas need work

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Where you are, by postcode

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairing versus replacing in Chiddingly

Swapping out a damaged 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. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
