Tile repair in West Cliff without replacing anything

We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. If you’re dealing with chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help, whatever the material.

You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Any details about the material
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area

To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

The process

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Questions from West Cliff

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Normally, if it is not loose.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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 does tile repair cost?

Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your BH2 postcode.

Do you work in West Cliff?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to West Cliff for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do I need to be at home?

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

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Do you cover the entire of Bournemouth?

Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

When we’d advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
