Tile repair for Needingworth homes

How we handle tile repair in Needingworth

We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. If you are dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can typically put it right.

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

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. 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 photos and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Colour-matched on site
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

Read our pricing.

When a repair isn’t the answer

We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot 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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Advice

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match

We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Send pictures for a quote

You can typically get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
