  • Marble
  • Porcelain tiles

How we handle tile repair in Vines Cross

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Whether it’s damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help, on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles alike.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlord and trade work in Vines Cross

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Vines Cross use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.

FAQs for Vines Cross

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Are there extra charges for Vines Cross?

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

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

What does tile repair cost?

Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Why repair rather than replace?

Swapping out a damaged 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. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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 Vines Cross clients choose us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • One visit for most repairs
  • No extra charge for your area

Can I fix it myself?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The colour and finish to match

A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • One picture of the whole tiled area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Any details about the material

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

10 questions to ask before you book

How it works

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

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

How to prepare

  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Make sure the area is dry
