Tile repair in Longhorsley, done in place

We repair the tile in place, 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. Whether it’s damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help, on marble, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles alike.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

For landlords and businesses

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

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.

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

How it works

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a few hours. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.

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

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Honest limits

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

How soon can you come?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

What do you need from me?

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you quote from photos?

Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

10 questions to ask before booking

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. 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.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:

  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Longhorsley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A photo taken from further back

If you’re in Longhorsley and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
