Tile repair at your home in Pather

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges.

Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Before and after: damaged granite tiles repaired in place

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

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

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice

How we price tile repair

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

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area

A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

If you are in Pather and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Your questions about tile repair in Pather

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

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

Is the work guaranteed?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

What information do you need?

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

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why Pather clients choose us

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, 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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

10 questions to ask before booking

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

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 normally the cheaper route.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pather

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pather use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
