How we handle tile repair in Littlebury

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We’re frequently asked to fix drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, in floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and marble.

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

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • 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.

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Landlord and trade work in Littlebury

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Littlebury questions

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Essex.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do you come to Littlebury?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Littlebury. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Will there be a smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

What happens on the day

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

How to get a price

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your CB11 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Littlebury. The price comes down to:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How hard the colour is to match

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Natural light rather than flash

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole tiled area, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
