Tile repair in Hook End, done in place
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Common call-outs are for chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, on ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and marble.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Common questions in Hook End
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Normally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
