Your questions about tile repair in Forhill
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you cover Forhill?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Forhill from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
There’s 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 will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Natural stone & granite
- Porcelain tiles

- Marble
- Floor and wall tiles
What affects the price in Forhill
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.

If you manage property in Forhill, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
