Tile repair for Kidlington homes

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • One picture of the whole tiled area

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

About our tile repair in Kidlington

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. We regularly repair natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Kidlington questions

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What does tile repair cost?

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

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Generally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

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. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

If you manage property in Kidlington, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What happens on the day

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

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

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice

What a repair cannot fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • 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.

Surfaces we repair

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

When to call us in Kidlington

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
