Tile repair in Farnham, Hertfordshire
Tile repair in and around Farnham: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
- Damaged tile edges
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Farnham as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Tile repair in Farnham without replacing anything
We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Farnham and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Common problems we fix in Farnham
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
The things clients normally mention when they call include:
- Damaged tile edges
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace

- Cracked floor tiles
Questions to ask before you book

- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Repairing versus replacing in Farnham
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
