How we handle tile repair in Altens
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. If you are dealing with chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

For landlords and businesses
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What we’re called out for in Altens
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.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
- Damaged tile edges
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Cracked floor tiles
What to look for in a quote

What affects the price in Altens
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Altens: your questions answered
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Do you work in Altens?
We do. Technicians travel to Altens from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
How much does tile repair cost in Altens?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
What we do, step by step
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Related advice
Repair or replace in Altens?
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. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
What you get with us
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- Same prices wherever you are
