About our tile repair in Crockleford Heath

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We regularly repair marble, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles, and the jobs we see most are chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  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. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Related advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, 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.

Why book with us

  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • We leave the room as we found it

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What affects the price in Crockleford Heath

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The type of damage
  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your photos

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

For a price in Crockleford Heath, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Crockleford Heath questions

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
