Tile repair near The Down

Tile repair at your home in The Down

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles, and people most frequently call us about chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in The Down and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

10 questions to ask before you book

What affects the price in The Down

Prices start from £95. There is no charge for travel to The Down. The price depends on:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The material and finish
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One picture of the whole tiled area

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

When we would advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • 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.

Materials we work on in The Down

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

Repairing versus replacing in The Down

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • Everything repaired in place
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

The process

We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Ensure the room can be ventilated

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
