Tile repair in Bulcote without replacing anything
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. Typical jobs include damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, on marble, natural stone & granite and porcelain tiles.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace in Bulcote?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Advice
How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Most customers in Bulcote get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Bulcote
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Common problems we fix in Bulcote
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
- Cracked floor tiles
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Damaged tile edges
Comparing quotes
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How the room is protected while they work
- How to care for the finish
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Common questions in Bulcote
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you work in Bulcote?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Bulcote for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
