Tile repair in Brixton without replacing anything
We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We work on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles, and people most frequently call us about cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
You are covered after we leave: 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 Brixton
Which areas do you work in?
All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Devon.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Usually, if it isn’t loose.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you cover Brixton?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Brixton and the rest of Devon. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: 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.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
For a price in Brixton, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- 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.
