Tile repair in West End, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If you’re dealing with chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, we can help, whatever the material.

Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in West End use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer

A repair isn’t 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.

Materials we repair

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

What we do, step by step

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We shape the repair flush with the tile.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can

What tile repair costs

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

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Getting a price from photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
