Tile repair near Langdon Hills

Tile repair at your home in Langdon Hills

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, we can usually put it right, on marble, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why us?

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • A fixed quote before you book

What we can’t put right

Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • 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 will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Langdon Hills questions

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

Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.

Do you work in Langdon Hills?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Langdon Hills from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Are there extra charges for Langdon Hills?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Langdon Hills?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your SS16 postcode.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  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. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Our hiring checklist

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
