Your questions about tile repair in Dafen

How do I get a price for tile repair in Dafen?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

How do I book?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Do you cover Dafen?

We do. We send a technician to Dafen for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Are there extra charges for Dafen?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Tile repair at your home in Dafen

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, across marble, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dafen

For anyone letting property in or around Dafen, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dafen use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

What we cannot put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Dafen

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size

For a price in Dafen, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged 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. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Work done at your home or business
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • No extra charge for your area

Read our pricing.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
