About our tile repair in Longfield Green

If a tile moves, it 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 repair technicians work on natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and marble, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools.

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 clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How the visit works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

What we can’t put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot 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’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

FAQs for Longfield Green

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

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

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

What affects the price in Longfield Green

Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

A few things move the price: 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.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Longfield Green, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Landlord and trade work in Longfield Green

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.
