Tile repair in Butterwick, North Yorkshire
Our technicians come to Butterwick for chip, crack and drill-hole repairs to floor and wall tiles. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Damaged tile edges
- Chips from dropped pans and tools

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
About our tile repair in Butterwick
The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges, we can help.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Butterwick
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Questions from Butterwick
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Butterwick.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
