Tile repair in New Southgate

How we handle tile repair in New Southgate

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Our technicians work on marble, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles, and people most frequently call us about cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in New Southgate

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why New Southgate clients choose us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Read our full price list.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The material, if you know it
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 will say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

New Southgate: your questions answered

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you cover New Southgate?

We do. We send a technician to New Southgate for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in New Southgate, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
