Choosing a repair company

Tile repair in Eastbourne without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our repair technicians work on ceramic tiles, marble and porcelain tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we cannot put right

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Repair or replace in Eastbourne?

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. Our tile repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • No need to remove anything

Questions from Eastbourne

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is there a call-out fee?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

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

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair will not last.

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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Eastbourne

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

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish

Compared with replacing, a repair is generally 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:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your BN23 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
