Tile repair at your home in Bircotes
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. Our technicians work on marble, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles, and people most frequently call us about cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Most clients in Bircotes get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- 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 pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Landlord and trade work in Bircotes
Rental properties take more wear, 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.
For anyone letting property in or around Bircotes, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Questions from Bircotes
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Repair or replace in Bircotes?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
