About our tile repair in Marcham

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We are often asked to fix cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, on porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Oxfordshire. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Common questions in Marcham

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Marcham?

Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.

Will there be a smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

The process

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  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 recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

How to get a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What tile repair costs

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

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many areas need work

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area

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 price the job the same day in most cases.

When we would advise against a repair

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • 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 you book.

What we work on

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

Landlord and trade work in Marcham

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.

For anyone letting property in or around Marcham, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
