Tile repair at your home in Caddington
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. We work on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Caddington
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
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.
When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- 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 photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Porcelain tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Floor and wall tiles
- Marble
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most customers in Caddington get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Your questions about tile repair in Caddington
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
