Tile repair for Lamb Corner homes

Tile repair in Lamb Corner without replacing anything

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We work on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Lamb Corner and across Essex. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

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. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

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, a professional repair is worth it.

Signs you need tile repair in Lamb Corner

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How many areas need work

A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Lamb Corner, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Lamb Corner. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
