Tile repair for Romford homes

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Tile repair in Romford, done in place

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. We work on porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people contact us are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

How to get a fixed price

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • What it’s made of, if you know

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Romford

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Romford use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, 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.

What we are called out for in Romford

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:

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

Our hiring checklist

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • 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 will tell you honestly.

How the visit works

Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
