Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
About our tile repair in Brough
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, we can normally put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire tiled area
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a few hours. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Advice
FAQs for Brough
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Typically, if it isn’t loose.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Brough.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not 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
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Natural stone & granite
