How we handle tile repair in Appleby Parva
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on ceramic tiles, marble and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people get in touch are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Appleby Parva and across Derbyshire. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout

Common questions in Appleby Parva
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
