Tile repair near Henstead

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Tile repair at your home in Henstead

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. We work on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Do I need to be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What affects the price in Henstead

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work
  • The material and finish

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.

When a repair is not the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • 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 pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Natural stone & granite
  • Marble
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Ceramic tiles

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

Our hiring checklist

Landlord and trade work in Henstead

For anyone letting property in or around Henstead, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Repairing versus replacing in Henstead

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why Henstead customers choose us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • No need to remove anything
