Tile repair at your home in Dymchurch
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. Typical jobs include drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in floor and wall tiles, marble and natural stone & granite.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Dymchurch and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Dymchurch: your questions answered
How do I get a price for tile repair in Dymchurch?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Typically, if it isn’t loose.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repair or replace in Dymchurch?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

What else we do in Dymchurch
What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
