Tile repair near Grubb Street

Tile repair at your home in Grubb Street

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite, and the jobs we see most are damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

How to compare quotes

Common questions in Grubb Street

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

Will you leave a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What areas do you cover?

All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Most clients in Grubb Street get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Work for landlords and builders

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

When a repair isn’t the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 before you book.
