About our tile repair in Rivenhall
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people contact us are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Rivenhall questions
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the whole UK, including Rivenhall and the rest of Essex. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
How much does tile repair cost in Rivenhall?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
What affects the price in Rivenhall
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
