Tile repair in High Hauxley without replacing anything

The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We work on floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Common questions in High Hauxley

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Typically, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How the visit works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

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

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Advice

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. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to High Hauxley. The price depends on:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for High Hauxley. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A photo taken from further back

Upload a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in High Hauxley, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

When a repair is not the answer

We won’t take on work that won’t 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Do you need tile repair in High Hauxley?

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools

Questions to ask before you book

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • Aftercare advice
