About our tile repair in Theale

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can typically put it right.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

When a repair isn’t the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

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

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Theale

  • Ceramic tiles
  • Porcelain tiles
  • Marble
  • Floor and wall tiles

What tile repair costs

Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Getting a price from photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • The material, if you know it
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Theale questions

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Are there extra charges for Theale?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

How do I get a price for tile repair in Theale?

Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Which areas do you work in?

The entire UK, including all of West Berkshire. Just include your postcode and we will confirm dates.

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged 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. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Why Theale customers choose us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

A DIY attempt isn’t 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.

What we do, step by step

Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a few hours, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  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.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
