Tile repair in Elmdon Heath

Tile repair in Elmdon Heath without replacing anything

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We work on ceramic tiles, marble and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Elmdon Heath

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many areas need work
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

  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. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

When we would advise against a repair

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 before you book.

What we work on

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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 will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
