Why repair rather than replace?

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ham. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Tile repair at your home in Ham
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. If you are dealing with cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Ham. The price reflects:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- One sharp close-up of the damage
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 give you a fixed quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

Your questions about tile repair in Ham
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What does tile repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
