Tile repair in Telham, done in place

We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We regularly repair porcelain tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Your questions about tile repair in Telham

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Telham?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole tiled area and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

Do you cover Telham?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Telham. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Access to the area
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Telham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Getting a price from photos

You can take the pictures on your phone. Make sure they show:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

If you manage property in Telham, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Honest limits

We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t 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

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

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
