What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Old Coulsdon. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Access to the area

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

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

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

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

FAQs for Old Coulsdon

Do I need to be at home?

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

Do you cover the entire of Greater London?

Across the UK, so Old Coulsdon is covered. Prices don’t change with location.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

What happens next?

We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Usually, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How it works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we will handle the rest.
