Tile repair in Bretton, done in place
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. We work on ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Lincolnshire. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- 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 pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Porcelain tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Ceramic tiles
- Marble
- Floor and wall tiles

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Bretton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Bretton: your questions answered
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What does tile repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Lincolnshire.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

What affects the price in Bretton
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
