Tile repair near St Giles

Tile repair in St Giles without replacing anything

We repair the tile in place, 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. If you’re dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlord and trade work in St Giles

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in St Giles use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. 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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why St Giles customers choose us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Most jobs done in one visit

  • No need to remove anything

How it works

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let us know about parking or access

Advice

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • Whether we combine several jobs

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Your questions about tile repair in St Giles

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Generally, if it is not loose.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

How quickly can you book me in?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:

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

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Can I fix it myself?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Common problems we fix in St Giles

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

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