Tile repair at your home in Barrow upon Trent
The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We regularly repair natural stone & granite, marble and ceramic tiles, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Repairing versus replacing in Barrow upon Trent
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Barrow upon Trent: your questions answered
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Barrow upon Trent included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Barrow upon Trent. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A photo taken from further back

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
