Tile repair at your home in Dunsden Green

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. We work on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Reading. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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.

Your questions about tile repair in Dunsden Green

Do I have to be there?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

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

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Are there extra charges for Dunsden Green?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

What affects the price in Dunsden Green

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:

  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Access to the area
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dunsden Green

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Reading and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

The process

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  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.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
