Why repair rather than replace?
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. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Tile repair at your home in Alton Barnes
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. We work on natural stone & granite, marble and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Alton Barnes, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Alton Barnes use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
