Tile repair in Sharpenhoe, done in place

The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, we can help, on floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles alike.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Sharpenhoe as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sharpenhoe use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.

What we’re called out for in Sharpenhoe

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Drill holes from removed fittings

Questions to ask before you book

  • How your room will be protected
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether a trained technician does the job
  • What prep work is covered

Our hiring checklist

How it works

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

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

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Ask for a price

Most customers in Sharpenhoe get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Advice

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

When we’d advise against a repair

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Sharpenhoe questions

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

How much does tile repair cost in Sharpenhoe?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
