Choosing a repair company

About our tile repair in Downfield

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you’re dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, we can usually put it right, on floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles alike.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage

What we can’t put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

What affects the price in Downfield

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Downfield. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire tiled area, we can price the job.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Repair or replace in Downfield?

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. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
