How we handle tile repair in Houghton on the Hill

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We regularly repair marble, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people contact us are drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Send photos for a quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How it works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.

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

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
