Tile repair for Wickham St Paul homes

Tile repair in Wickham St Paul without replacing anything

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We work on marble, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most frequently call us about drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles.

You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repairing versus replacing in Wickham St Paul

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • 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 photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

What tile repair costs

Repairs from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

Choosing a repair company

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wickham St Paul as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
