Tile repair for Dibden Purlieu homes

Tile repair in Dibden Purlieu without replacing anything

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. Our repair technicians work on marble, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles, and common reasons people contact us 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. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 typically cheaper.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

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

How to prepare

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Any details about the material
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Where you are, by postcode

To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.

For landlords and businesses

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Hampshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
