Tile repair for Penwood homes

About our tile repair in Penwood

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Typical jobs include discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, across ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we cannot put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to compare quotes

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Penwood: your questions answered

What happens next?

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

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

How quickly can you book me in?

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

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Penwood. The price reflects:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • What kind of damage it is

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Penwood. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area

Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Penwood, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
