Tile repair for Temple End homes

Tile repair in Temple End without replacing anything

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repairing versus replacing in Temple End

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • No extra charge for your area

Read our pricing.

What affects the price in Temple End

Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Temple End. What changes the price is:

  • The type of damage
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How much damage there is
  • The colour and finish to match

Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Send photos for a quote

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

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Our hiring checklist

How the visit works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which generally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price

To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

DIY kit or professional repair?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
