Tile repair in Chipping Ongar, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, in natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Your questions about tile repair in Chipping Ongar

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

How much does tile repair cost in Chipping Ongar?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Chipping Ongar and the rest of Essex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

What we cannot put right

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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 pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • How many areas need work

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Chipping Ongar, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  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

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

10 questions to ask before you book

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

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