What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Blackwater. What changes the price is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A photo taken from further back
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
About our tile repair in Blackwater
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. If you’re dealing with chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, we can help, on natural stone & granite, marble and ceramic tiles alike.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

All of TR4 is within our area, from the main roads to the quietest streets. Local streets include North Hill, Highview and Symons Close. We also travel to Scorrier (1 mile south), Salem (1 mile south-east), Carnhot (1 mile south-east), Chacewater (1 mile south-east) and Jolly's Bottom (2 miles south-east).

Landlords, agents and businesses in Blackwater
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
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.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
