Tile repair for Guston homes

Tile repair at your home in Guston

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’ll tell you. We work on floor and wall tiles, marble and ceramic tiles, and people most often call us about cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Guston

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

For a price in Guston, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What a repair can’t fix

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

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

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

10 questions to ask before you book

Landlord and trade work in Guston

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Guston as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

How the visit works

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  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. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Related advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Guston. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • No need to remove anything
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
