Repair or replace in Ham?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Tile repair at your home in Ham
The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. If you are dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Ham and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Ham
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Ham. What changes the price is:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- What it’s made of, if you know
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Common questions in Ham
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price. You are under no obligation.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Ham included. There is no extra charge for travel.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
