How we handle tile repair in Down Street

We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We’re frequently asked to fix damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles, in ceramic tiles, marble and porcelain tiles.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Questions from Down Street

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire tiled area and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Down Street. Prices don’t change with location.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you come to Down Street?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Down Street and the rest of East Sussex. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

How to compare quotes

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Down Street. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
