Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One price list for the whole UK
  • No need to remove anything
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Tile repair in Hockliffe without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If you are dealing with cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, we can help, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send pictures for a quote

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For a price in Hockliffe, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Landlord and trade work in Hockliffe

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hockliffe as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
