Tile repair in Barbican Estate without replacing anything
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We’re frequently asked to fix drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, across floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Barbican Estate: your questions answered
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What does tile repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Barbican Estate. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
