How we handle tile repair in Sheldwich Lees

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We work on porcelain tiles, marble and ceramic tiles, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Kent. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Advice

What we can’t put right

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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 before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Sheldwich Lees: your questions answered

Do you cover the whole of Kent?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Drill holes from removed fittings

Choosing a repair company

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Sheldwich Lees. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What you get with us

  • A year’s guarantee on all work
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures

See our prices page.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Sheldwich Lees. The price reflects:

  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The material and finish

Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:

  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • One picture of the entire tiled area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The material, if you know it

There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
