Tile repair for Kenton homes

Tile repair at your home in Kenton

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Our technicians work on natural stone & granite, marble and ceramic tiles, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Kenton: your questions answered

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

What happens next?

You will get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

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

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Which areas do you work in?

Everywhere in the UK, Kenton included. Travel is included in the price.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

  • Damaged tile edges
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools

Questions to ask before you book

  • Aftercare advice
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

How to get a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Kenton. The price reflects:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
