Tile repair at your home in Humby

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across ceramic tiles, marble and porcelain tiles.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Humby

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Humby use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Honest limits

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Ceramic tiles
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Marble
  • Natural stone & granite

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What you get with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Our hiring checklist

What tile repair costs

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

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.
