Questions from Hillam

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

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

Do I need to be at home?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole tiled area and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Which areas do you work in?

Across the UK. Prices don’t change with location.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Tile repair at your home in Hillam

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, we can help.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How to compare quotes

When a repair isn’t 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.

Materials we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • The material, if you know it

Most customers in Hillam get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  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. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Related advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
