Tile repair in Tunbridge Hill without replacing anything
The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and marble, and people most frequently call us about drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Tunbridge Hill as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Related advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 frequently lifts.

Tunbridge Hill: your questions answered
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Tunbridge Hill. Prices don’t change with location.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tunbridge Hill as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
