About our tile repair in Appleby-in-Westmorland
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. If you are dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can normally put it right.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

FAQs for Appleby-in-Westmorland
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
What happens after I send photos?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, normally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Do you come to Appleby-in-Westmorland?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Appleby-in-Westmorland and the rest of Cumbria. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What affects the price in Appleby-in-Westmorland
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole tiled area
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire tiled area, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
