Tile repair in Godinton, Kent
We travel to Godinton for chip, crack and drill-hole repairs to floor and wall tiles. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Cracked floor tiles
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Tile repair in Godinton, done in place
We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. If you’re dealing with damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles, we can help, whatever the material.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Godinton as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.

Common questions in Godinton
How do I get a price for tile repair in Godinton?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
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.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Godinton. The price comes down to:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole tiled area, we can price the job without visiting.
What we are called out for in Godinton
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
The things clients generally mention when they call include:
- Cracked floor tiles
- Damaged tile edges
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
Before you book anyone

- What happens if they find more damage
- If travel is included in the price

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
