Garden Suburb questions
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Tile repair in Garden Suburb, done in place
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. We’re often asked to fix damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in marble, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What else we do in Garden Suburb
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
