Trusted tile repair in Ightham

Tile repair in Ightham without replacing anything

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. Common call-outs are for discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, on ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and marble.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled 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

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Ightham. What changes the price is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material

No two jobs are quite the same, 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Our hiring checklist

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What you get with us

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

See our pricing.

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Ightham questions

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

What information do you need?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.

If you manage property in Ightham, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
