How it works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Honest limits

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

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

Materials we work on in Red House Farm

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

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. There is no area surcharge for Red House Farm. What changes the price is:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How hard the colour is to match

A few things move the price: 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

Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
