About our tile repair in Monkey Street

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Typical jobs include damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles, in marble, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Before and after: damaged granite tiles repaired in place

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

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.

When a repair isn’t the answer

To be straight with you, some problems need a different 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 before you book.

What we work on

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

What affects the price in Monkey Street

Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material
  • The colour and finish to match

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Monkey Street. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Natural light rather than flash

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Monkey Street as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Common problems we fix in Monkey Street

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

What your quote should include

  • How long it needs to cure
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What aftercare is recommended

How to compare quotes

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why Monkey Street clients choose us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • No extra charge for your area
  • No need to remove anything
