Tile repair in Onehouse

How we handle tile repair in Onehouse

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our technicians work on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and marble, and the jobs we see most are damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Take a look at our full price list.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • The colour and finish to match

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • Something in shot to show the size

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job 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. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can

How to get a price

You don’t need a survey visit. 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.

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Onehouse as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

FAQs for Onehouse

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is it messy?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

What happens after I send pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Do you work in Onehouse?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Onehouse. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

How do I book?

Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is there a call-out fee?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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 frequently lifts.
