Tile repair in Bottisham without replacing anything
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. We’re frequently asked to fix cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace in Bottisham?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

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, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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.
Common problems we fix in Bottisham
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
The things clients generally mention when they call are:
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Damaged tile edges
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Cracked floor tiles
What your quote should include

For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price

Your questions about tile repair in Bottisham
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Often, yes, if it is not loose.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many items we do on one visit
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bottisham. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
For a price in Bottisham, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- 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 will tell you honestly.
