Tile repair in Kingsnorth without replacing anything
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Kingsnorth: your questions answered
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
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.
Do you cover Kingsnorth?
We do. Technicians travel to Kingsnorth from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole tiled area and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Advice
What affects the price in Kingsnorth
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Landlord and trade work in Kingsnorth
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Floor and wall tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Marble
- Natural stone & granite
- Porcelain tiles
Repair or replace in Kingsnorth?

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
