Tile repair in Alicehead without replacing anything
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you are dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, we can normally put it right, on floor and wall tiles, marble and porcelain tiles alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What affects the price in Alicehead
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a 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. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Advice
When to call us in Alicehead
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Damaged tile edges
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
Comparing quotes
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- How your room will be protected
- Aftercare advice
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
