Book tile repair in Daw's House

What affects the price in Daw's House

Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • One picture of the whole tiled area

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Tile repair at your home in Daw's House

We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Our technicians work on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble, and people most frequently call us about drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. 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.

Before and after: damaged granite tiles repaired in place

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Related advice

When we’d advise against a repair

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Repairing versus replacing in Daw's House

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
