Tile repair in Burnham-on-Crouch without replacing anything
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We are often asked to fix discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, across marble, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole tiled area
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- 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 will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Floor and wall tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Porcelain tiles
- Marble
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
