We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Tile repair in Amotherby without replacing anything
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 say so. We are frequently asked to fix discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, on natural stone & granite, marble and porcelain tiles.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
