Trusted tile repair in Copthorne

Tile repair in Copthorne, done in place

We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We regularly repair ceramic tiles, marble and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in West Sussex. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

Copthorne: your questions answered

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Copthorne.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Frequently, yes, if it isn’t loose.

Are there extra charges for Copthorne?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you come to Copthorne?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Copthorne and the rest of West Sussex. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The material

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For a price in Copthorne, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly before booking.
