Trusted tile repair in Hickstead

Tile repair at your home in Hickstead

We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We work on natural stone & granite, marble and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people contact us are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Hickstead and across West Sussex. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Hickstead, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Hickstead questions

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

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

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do you come to Hickstead?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Hickstead for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Choosing a repair company

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Hickstead. The price reflects:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Getting a price from pictures

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout
