Tile repair for Knebworth homes

Tile repair at your home in Knebworth

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Our technicians work on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles, and people most frequently call us about damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Knebworth

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Frequently, yes, if it isn’t loose.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Can you price it without visiting?

Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

What areas do you cover?

Everywhere in the UK, Knebworth included. Travel is included in the price.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Knebworth. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How much damage there is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles

Our hiring checklist

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

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

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

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.
