How we handle tile repair in Ford

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If you are dealing with chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Your questions about tile repair in Ford

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

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

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Ford

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For a price in Ford, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

10 questions to ask before booking

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  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

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
