A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What affects the price in Anstey
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Anstey. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire tiled area
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Common questions in Anstey
What does tile repair cost?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item with your SG9 postcode.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you come to Anstey?
We do. Technicians travel to Anstey from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Anstey and the rest of Hertfordshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Normally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Do you need tile repair in Anstey?
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Cracked floor tiles
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How your room will be protected
- How to care for the finish
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
