Tile repair in Kemsley

Tile repair in Kemsley without replacing anything

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We regularly repair ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and marble, and common reasons people get in touch are drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Kemsley and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Your questions about tile repair in Kemsley

Do you come to Kemsley?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Kemsley and the rest of Kent. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What does tile repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

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

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

What a repair cannot fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Kent and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

How we price tile repair

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
