About our tile repair in Bolingey
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our technicians work on natural stone & granite, marble and ceramic tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Bolingey
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Do you come to Bolingey?
We do. We send a technician to Bolingey for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
