About our tile repair in Balcombe Lane
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Balcombe Lane. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
