Tile repair in Northwood

How we handle tile repair in Northwood

The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Our technicians work on natural stone & granite, marble and porcelain tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Northwood as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Choosing a repair company

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Northwood. The price reflects:

  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed quote

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

Landlord and trade work in Northwood

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, 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.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a 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. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Northwood. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
