Tile repair in Swiss Cottage, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you are dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

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

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Swiss Cottage

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Swiss Cottage. The price depends on:

  • How many areas need work
  • Access to the area
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Do you need tile repair in Swiss Cottage?

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

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

Before booking anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

How to compare quotes

Repairing versus replacing in Swiss Cottage

Swapping out a damaged 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. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What a repair can’t fix

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

FAQs for Swiss Cottage

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Greater London.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

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.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
