Need tile repair in Upper Ruxley?

Should you replace it?

Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why book with us

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Work done at your home or business
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

How we handle tile repair in Upper Ruxley

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

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

Landlord and trade work in Upper Ruxley

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Upper Ruxley as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

What happens on the day

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a few hours. At the end we talk you through 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. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

10 questions to ask before you book

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

FAQs for Upper Ruxley

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Does someone need to be in?

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

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Usually, if it isn’t loose.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the entire UK, including Upper Ruxley and the rest of Greater London. Just include your postcode and we will offer you dates.

When a repair is not the answer

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • 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 photos and we will say what we think before booking.
