What affects the price in Kilndown

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Kilndown. The price reflects:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.

How we handle tile repair in Kilndown

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, in ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Our hiring checklist

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Questions from Kilndown

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

What areas do you cover?

All of Kent, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire tiled area and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

How much does tile repair cost in Kilndown?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your TN17 postcode.

Is my repair covered?

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

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.

Honest limits

We won’t take on work that will not 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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  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. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Kilndown. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
