Landlord and trade work in Tyttenhanger

Tile repair in Tyttenhanger, done in place

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We work on floor and wall tiles, marble and ceramic tiles, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Take a look at our pricing.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage

We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Tyttenhanger. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Questions from Tyttenhanger

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.

What about drill holes in tiles?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Is there a call-out fee?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

When we would advise against a repair

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Marble
  • Ceramic tiles
  • Natural stone & granite
  • Porcelain tiles

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
