Tile repair near Oxbridge

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Tile repair at your home in Oxbridge

We repair the tile in place, 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 floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles, and people most frequently call us about drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges.

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

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Oxbridge

For anyone letting property in or around Oxbridge, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

When a repair is not the answer

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Oxbridge questions

What do you need from me?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Oxbridge?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What happens after I send pictures?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Oxbridge. What changes the price is:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Any details about the material
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

What we do, step by step

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
