About our tile repair in Birgham
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. Whether it’s damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can usually put it right.
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.

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What the surface is made of
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- The colour and finish to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TD12 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Questions from Birgham
What does tile repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
