Questions from West Silvertown
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you come to West Silvertown?
We do. We send a technician to West Silvertown for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Normally, if it is not loose.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you need tile repair in West Silvertown?
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
People typically call us when they notice one of these:
- Damaged tile edges
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Cracked floor tiles
- Drill holes from removed fittings

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- 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 you book.
