Tile repair in Alby, done in place
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Norfolk. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. It normally takes a morning or an afternoon, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Alby questions
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Usually, if it isn’t loose.
Do you work in Alby?
We do. Technicians travel to Alby from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Norfolk. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Alby?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- 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’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

What else we do in Alby
Repairing versus replacing in Alby
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Work done at your home or business
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
