Trusted tile repair in The Frenches

Tile repair at your home in The Frenches

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from The Frenches

How much does tile repair cost in The Frenches?

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

Do you cover the entire of Hampshire?

We work UK-wide, so The Frenches is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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

What information do you need?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can tenants book a repair?

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

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How the visit works

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. The repair is levelled 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.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Landlord and trade work in The Frenches

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Hampshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including The Frenches. The price reflects:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

You do not 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 will reply with a fixed price.

Repairing versus replacing in The Frenches

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
