Tile repair in Fencott without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Fencott and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repairing versus replacing in Fencott

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

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.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 booking.

What we work on

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

What we do, step by step

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many items we do on one visit

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Fencott. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Common questions in Fencott

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

What areas do you cover?

We cover the entire UK, including Fencott and the rest of Oxfordshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
