Tile repair for Slutshole homes

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Why book with us

  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • One price list for the entire UK
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • No need to remove anything

Tile repair in Slutshole without replacing anything

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We work on marble, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Slutshole questions

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Do you come to Slutshole?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Slutshole and the rest of Kent. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

Choosing a repair company

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Access to the area

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Where you are, by postcode

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Slutshole, and we will reply with a fixed price.

How it works

On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  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

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Getting a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
