Tile repair in Upton, done in place

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. If you’re dealing with damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help.

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

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will tell you if anything changes.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Advice

What we can’t put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing 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

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

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

Can I fix it myself?

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Everything repaired in place
  • A year’s guarantee on all work

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:

  • The material and finish
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Access to the area
  • The type of damage

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 price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Getting a price from pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire tiled area

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
