How we handle tile repair in Tapnage

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 are dealing with damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can usually put it right.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Choosing a repair company

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Ensure the area is dry

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Tapnage

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Tapnage questions

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working.

Are you accredited?

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

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

When can you do it?

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

Can you quote from photos?

Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Do you cover Tapnage?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Tapnage and the rest of Hampshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

What tile repair costs

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

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Send pictures for a quote

When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When we’d advise against a repair

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • 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 booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Repairing versus replacing in Tapnage

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
