About our tile repair in Alverstone Garden Village
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. We’re often asked to fix cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools, in ceramic tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles.
Somewhere like Alverstone Garden Village, older homes may still have their original floors, and those are worth looking after. A repair keeps them.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Alverstone Garden Village: what to know about tile repair
We also work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, so if you look after a building such as Newchurch Primary School, tiled corridors and washrooms can be repaired in place too. If you live in one of the older homes near a church such as All Saints' Church, old tiles are hard to match, so repairing a damaged one keeps the original floor.

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes cost nothing and you’re under no obligation.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on. Somewhere as small as Alverstone Garden Village, access is usually the main thing to plan. Once we are there, the tile repair works exactly as anywhere else.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space clear if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
