Tile repair for Richborough Port homes

Tile repair at your home in Richborough Port

We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. Our repair technicians work on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and marble, and common reasons people get in touch are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings.

All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Richborough Port

What does tile repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

What affects the price in Richborough Port

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to Richborough Port. The price depends on:

  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs

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

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Open a window if you can

Getting a price

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Our hiring checklist

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.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

For landlords and businesses

If you manage property in Richborough Port, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. 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. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Why book with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
