Tile repair in Hawthorn, Kent
Our technicians come to Hawthorn for chip, crack and drill-hole repairs to floor and wall tiles. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Damaged tile edges
- Cracked floor tiles
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
About our tile repair in Hawthorn
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Hawthorn and across Kent. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- 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 before booking.
Materials we repair
- Natural stone & granite
- Porcelain tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Marble
- Floor and wall tiles
What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
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.

FAQs for Hawthorn
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What areas do you cover?
All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
