Tile repair near Foots Cray

Repair or replace in Foots Cray?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

About our tile repair in Foots Cray

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Typical jobs include chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, on marble, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

10 questions to ask before you book

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Ask for a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many items we do on one visit

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

For landlords and businesses

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

If you manage property in Foots Cray, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Foots Cray: your questions answered

Are there extra charges for Foots Cray?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What information do you need?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you come to Foots Cray?

Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Foots Cray from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
