Tile repair for Dimple homes

What a repair can’t fix

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Tile repair at your home in Dimple

The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Common call-outs are for damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, in floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite.

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.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. 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 photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No need to remove anything

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • Any details about the material
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode

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

What we’re called out for in Dimple

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Most people contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles

Questions to ask before you book

  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What preparation is included

Choosing a repair company

Dimple: your questions answered

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
