How we handle tile repair in Folkestone
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Typical jobs include discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, across floor and wall tiles, marble and ceramic tiles.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Folkestone as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Folkestone
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Kent. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Typically, if it isn’t loose.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CT20 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.

Can I fix it myself?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted
