Tile repair in Kingwood Common

How we handle tile repair in Kingwood Common

We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We work on marble, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles, and common reasons people contact us are drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

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

  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles

  • What protection goes down before work starts

Our hiring checklist

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One picture of the whole tiled area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing 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. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What a repair cannot fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

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