Tile repair in Fairlop, done in place
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Typical jobs include cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, in porcelain tiles, marble and natural stone & granite.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your IG6 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Do you need tile repair in Fairlop?
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Cracked floor tiles
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
- Drill holes from removed fittings
What your quote should include
- How your room will be protected
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether the price covers travel
How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Fairlop. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
You can typically get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
