Tile repair for Pig Street homes

About our tile repair in Pig Street

We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Common call-outs are for chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, across ceramic tiles, marble and natural stone & granite.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Your questions about tile repair in Pig Street

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Do you cover the whole of Essex?

All of Essex, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.

Is there a guarantee?

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

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire tiled area and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Will it make a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

The process

You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently 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 the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pig Street

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

What tile repair costs

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

  • How much damage there is
  • The material
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • What kind of damage it is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Details of any past repairs

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Honest limits

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think.

What we work on

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

Common problems we fix in Pig Street

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace

Before you book anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • How the colour is matched

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Pig Street. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
