What affects the price in Allanton
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire tiled area
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire tiled area, we can give you a fixed quote.
Honest limits
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout

Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Allanton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
