About our tile repair in Whaddon

A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, we can help.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. We clean the tile and remove 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

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Whaddon: your questions answered

How quickly can you book me in?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Do you cover Whaddon?

We do. We send a technician to Whaddon for every job, with no extra charge for travel.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

What information do you need?

Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What affects the price in Whaddon

Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Whaddon. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The material and finish
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed price

You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

For a price in Whaddon, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Common problems we fix in Whaddon

Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace

Before booking anyone

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Our hiring checklist

DIY kit or professional repair?

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

What we cannot put right

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • 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.
