Tile repair at your home in Bathway
We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. Typical jobs include cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, on floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Common questions in Bathway
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Bathway?
Prices start from £95. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your BA3 postcode.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Are there extra charges for Bathway?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Which areas do you work in?
The entire UK, including all of Somerset. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Typically, if it is not loose.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
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.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You do not need a survey visit. 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.
Repairing versus replacing in Bathway
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
