How we handle tile repair in St Leonards

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on floor and wall tiles, marble and porcelain tiles, and common reasons people contact us are cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from St Leonards

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Does someone need to be in?

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

What happens after I send photos?

You will get a fixed quote back. You’re under no obligation.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

Do you work in St Leonards?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to St Leonards for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

What areas do you cover?

The entire UK, including all of South Lanarkshire. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

How the visit works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let us know about parking or access

Ask for a price

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

Advice

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why St Leonards customers choose us

  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Colour-matched on site
  • We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • Fixed prices from your photos

Read our prices page.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, it’s worth having it done properly.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • 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 will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Send pictures for a quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • A photo taken from further back

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