How we price tile repair

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Burton on the Wolds. The price comes down to:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The material and finish
  • How hard the colour is to match

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Send pictures for a quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Burton on the Wolds, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
