Tile repair in Great Leighs

Tile repair at your home in Great Leighs

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Typical jobs include chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlord and trade work in Great Leighs

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

Do you need tile repair in Great Leighs?

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Damaged tile edges

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • Who will actually do the work

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  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. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

Honest limits

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. 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 pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Materials we repair

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

Your questions about tile repair in Great Leighs

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

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

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

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

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Great Leighs. What changes the price is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • 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.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
