About our tile repair in South Acton
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Common questions in South Acton
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
How do I get a price for tile repair in South Acton?

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a 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. 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.

Read our pricing.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
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.

What affects the price in South Acton
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will 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
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Landlords, agents and businesses in South Acton
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
