Common questions in Ayleford
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Normally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Tile repair at your home in Ayleford
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We work on marble, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Ayleford and across Gloucestershire. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How it works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a few hours, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

What affects the price in Ayleford
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Ceramic tiles
- Marble
- Porcelain tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Floor and wall tiles
Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
