Tile repair for Smithstone homes

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.

About our tile repair in Smithstone

The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Our repair technicians work on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most often call us about discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • 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 you book.

What we work on

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

Repairing versus replacing in Smithstone

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • No need to remove anything
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

Take a look at our full price list.

For landlords and businesses

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

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

When to call us in Smithstone

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

People generally call us after spotting something like this:

  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools

Choosing a repair company

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many items we do on one visit

Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Details of any past repairs

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

What we do, step by step

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
