The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  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. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Getting a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

About our tile repair in Kew

We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We work on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Choosing a repair company

Common questions in Kew

How do I get a price for tile repair in Kew?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Do you come to Kew?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Kew for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Normally, if it is not loose.

Can pets and children be at home?

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The material
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Kew, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

What a repair can’t fix

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

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

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

For anyone letting property in or around Kew, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
