Tile repair near Northwood

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, 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 will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

How we handle tile repair in Northwood

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We’re often asked to fix drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, in floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Your questions about tile repair in Northwood

I rent my home. Can I book you?

We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

What happens after I send photos?

You’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no obligation to book.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

What affects the price in Northwood

Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Northwood. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

If you’re in Northwood and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Our hiring checklist

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Ask for a price

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Northwood

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Northwood use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Greater London and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
