Book tile repair in North Sheen

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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

Tile repair in North Sheen, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, in porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and marble.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair

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

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Send pictures for a quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

What we do, step by step

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. We leave the room clean.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
