Trusted tile repair in Tonge

Repair or replace in Tonge?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

  • Rooms protected and left tidy

  • A fixed quote before you book

Tile repair at your home in Tonge

We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Our technicians work on porcelain tiles, marble and ceramic tiles, and the jobs we see most are chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges.

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

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tonge as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Your questions about tile repair in Tonge

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.

Is there any odour?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Usually, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Choosing a repair company

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer

Some jobs are not right for a repair, 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

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
