How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
About our tile repair in Abbeyhill
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
Questions from Abbeyhill
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, typically with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What we are called out for in Abbeyhill

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
