Tile repair for Rowhedge homes

Tile repair at your home in Rowhedge

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you’re dealing with cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Repairing versus replacing in Rowhedge

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Why book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Rooms protected and left tidy

Honest limits

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

  • 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 photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

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

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Rowhedge. The price comes down to:

  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

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.

Send photos for a quote

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Essex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

10 questions to ask before booking

What happens on the day

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled 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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access
