Tile repair near Old Malden

Tile repair at your home in Old Malden

We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. If you are dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What happens on the day

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a few hours. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Questions from Old Malden

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you cover the entire of Surrey?

The entire UK, including all of Surrey. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Can you quote from photos?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Old Malden. The price comes down to:

  • The type of damage
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • How many areas need work

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • The material, if you know it

To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
