What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Arkesden. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash

- One picture of the whole tiled area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your CB11 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What else we do in Arkesden
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Essex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. Allow a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
Getting a price
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 quote the same day in most cases.
Related advice
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, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
When to call us in Arkesden
