Tile repair near Bakewell

Tile repair in Bakewell, done in place

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Our repair technicians work on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most frequently call us about cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What you get with us

  • Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Take a look at our pricing.

How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • The material, if you know it

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

How the visit works

You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. Next we fill the damage.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Getting a price

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
