FAQs for Harlow
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How much does tile repair cost in Harlow?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you cover the entire of Essex?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How we handle tile repair in Harlow
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.
Repairing versus replacing in Harlow
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Harlow as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
For anyone letting property in or around Harlow, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- Details of any past repairs
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
