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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. For a rural home like those around Havering-atte-Bower, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while tile repair is one trip.

Our tile repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Everything repaired in place

Questions from Havering-atte-Bower

Do you come out to small places like Havering-atte-Bower?

Yes, villages and hamlets are part of our area, with the same prices as anywhere else.

Can you fix tiles at a school or business in Havering-atte-Bower?

Yes. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations and work for schools, leisure centres and businesses. We will agree timings that suit the building.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Havering-atte-Bower. The price depends on:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Doing more than one item at once

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

What happens on the day

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together. In a village or hamlet like Havering-atte-Bower, access can be the only tricky part. Once on site, the job is the same as anywhere.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
