Tile repair in Airedale without replacing anything
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. Our technicians work on porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and marble, and common reasons people contact us are chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Airedale. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- Where you are, by postcode
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Airedale. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you come to Airedale?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Airedale from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Generally, if it isn’t loose.
What happens after I send photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
