How we handle tile repair in Erdington

We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Erdington

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you cover Erdington?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Erdington for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Are you accredited?

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why us?

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

Read our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

What tile repair costs

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

  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, 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 look after it.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit
