Tile repair for Rowlands Gill homes

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

About our tile repair in Rowlands Gill

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Typical jobs include cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Rowlands Gill and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Rowlands Gill questions

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Generally, if it is not loose.

Are there extra charges for Rowlands Gill?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Is there any odour?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours, tidy-up included.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

Advice

Repairing versus replacing in Rowlands Gill

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
