Tile repair for King Street homes

About our tile repair in King Street

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. Typical jobs include discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, in porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles.

Somewhere like King Street, floors in older homes have frequently been down a long time, so a replacement rarely matches. A repair keeps what you have.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How to compare quotes

King Street questions

Is it worth repairing old tiles in a period home in King Street?

Normally, yes. Older tiles are often worth repairing rather than replacing. Send us photos and we’ll tell you what’s possible.

Can you fix tiles in a rental near Ingatestone station?

Of course: pictures and an address are all we need for a price, and we can arrange access with the tenant if that helps.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

What do you need from me?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

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

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we tidy up before we leave.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in King Street as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

How the visit works

When we visit, 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. For a rural address like King Street, we plan the journey in advance: tell us about narrow lanes, gates, long drives or where to park. We bring everything needed for the tile repair, so there’s no second trip.

  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. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let us know about parking or access

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How much damage there is

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The material, if you know it

Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CM4 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. For a rural home like those around King Street, a replacement means trades travelling out and waste being taken away, while tile repair is one trip.

Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • 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.
