How we handle tile repair in Barrow Hill
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on natural stone & granite, marble and ceramic tiles, and the jobs we see most are chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Can I fix it myself?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
