Tile repair in Plaistow

Tile repair at your home in Plaistow

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If you’re dealing with damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, we can normally put it right, on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite alike.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What does tile repair cost?

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Often, yes, if it is not loose.

What we’re called out for in Plaistow

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace

  • What protection goes down before work starts

  • Whether a trained technician does the job

10 questions to ask before booking

What a repair can’t fix

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

Materials we repair

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

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

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

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

  • Details of any past repairs

Should I try a DIY kit first?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

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