Trusted tile repair in Finsbury Park

How we handle tile repair in Finsbury Park

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. Common call-outs are for chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges, in ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Finsbury Park and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

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

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Finsbury Park. The price depends on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Finsbury Park. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode

Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your N4 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • 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 will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

What we’re called out for in Finsbury Park

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Damaged tile edges
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools

What your quote should include

  • Who turns up on the day
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • When it can be used again

10 questions to ask before you book

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
