Tile repair in Little Bentley

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • How many areas need work

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A picture taken from further back
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

If you’re in Little Bentley and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How we handle tile repair in Little Bentley

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repairing versus replacing in Little Bentley

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year

Questions from Little Bentley

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

What happens after I send photos?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

What do you need from me?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.

Do you cover the entire of Essex?

All of Essex, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Generally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

When to call us in Little Bentley

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

Choosing a repair company

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Open a window if you can

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
