Tile repair for Horbling homes

Should you replace it?

Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Tile repair in Horbling, done in place

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Our technicians work on marble, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Signs you need tile repair in Horbling

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Drill holes from removed fittings

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Our hiring checklist

How it works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How much damage there is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

If you’re in Horbling and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
