Tile repair at your home in Coronation

A loose or rocking tile 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 cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools, in natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Coronation and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Our hiring checklist

Coronation questions

Is there a call-out fee?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

How much does tile repair cost in Coronation?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How quickly can you book me in?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Do you come to Coronation?

Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Coronation from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

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 affects the price in Coronation

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

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

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Coronation. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Honest limits

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
