Tile repair in Kingston without replacing anything
We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Our technicians work on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble, and people most frequently call us about 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. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Kingston
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Kingston. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Questions from Kingston
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Kingston
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Kingston

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
