About our tile repair in Hoath
A loose or rocking tile 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. Typical jobs include drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, across floor and wall tiles, marble and natural stone & granite.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Hoath and across Kent. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Hoath. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hoath use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
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 generally cheaper.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.

What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It usually takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
