About our tile repair in Bishops Lydeard
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a few hours. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Related advice
How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
