Tile repair for Temple Hill homes

Tile repair in Temple Hill without replacing anything

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Our technicians work on ceramic tiles, marble and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Temple Hill and across Kent. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

For anyone letting property in or around Temple Hill, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  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. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

What we can’t put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Your questions about tile repair in Temple Hill

Do you do work for letting agents?

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

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Will there be a smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

How soon can you come?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Temple Hill. The price reflects:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from pictures

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Any details about the material
  • A picture taken from further back

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
