A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t 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 will tell you honestly.

Your questions about tile repair in East Compton

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Are there extra charges for East Compton?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

How much does tile repair cost in East Compton?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated 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
  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
