Tile repair at your home in Farley

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, in porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Farley as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repairing versus replacing in Farley

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Landlord and trade work in Farley

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Farley use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Signs you need tile repair in Farley

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.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles

Questions to ask before booking

  • What prep work is covered
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

How we price tile repair

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

  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know about parking or access
