You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Test Valley as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Advice
Common questions in Test Valley
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Hampshire.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

- Where you are, by postcode

Landlords, agents and businesses in Test Valley
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Repairing versus replacing in Test Valley
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
