How we handle tile repair in Alvaston
The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Our repair technicians work on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and marble, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Your questions about tile repair in Alvaston
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Alvaston?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Typically, if it is not loose.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Alvaston. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Derby and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
What affects the price in Alvaston
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Alvaston. What changes the price is:
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole tiled area, we can price the job.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Repairing versus replacing in Alvaston
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Alvaston. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
