What we can’t put right

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

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

  • Marble
  • Ceramic tiles
  • Natural stone & granite

Tile repair in Todhills without replacing anything

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. We work on marble, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most frequently call us about drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:

  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

How to get a fixed price

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Todhills questions

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

When can you do it?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. 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 in Todhills?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Todhills. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Will you leave a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

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

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, including clearing up.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire tiled area, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
