About our tile repair in South Malling

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. If you’re dealing with damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help, whatever the material.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in South Malling

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • What kind of damage it is

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

When a repair is not the answer

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:

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

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

What we work on

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

Your questions about tile repair in South Malling

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Usually, if it isn’t loose.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

What about drill holes in tiles?

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

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Open a window if you can
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
