How we handle tile repair in Gosport

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Our repair technicians work on porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and marble, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Gosport. The price depends on:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

Work for landlords and builders

For anyone letting property in or around Gosport, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

FAQs for Gosport

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole tiled area and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Will the price change on the day?

We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Do you cover Gosport?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Gosport for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What we work on

  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Natural stone & granite
  • Ceramic tiles
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Marble

Common problems we fix in Gosport

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
