Need tile repair in Southsea?

Landlords, agents and businesses in Southsea

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

About our tile repair in Southsea

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles, and common reasons people contact us are drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we cannot put right

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Do you need tile repair in Southsea?

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

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

Before booking anyone

  • Aftercare advice
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • When it can be used again

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Southsea, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repairing versus replacing in Southsea

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
