How we handle tile repair in Calais Street

We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We regularly repair ceramic tiles, porcelain tiles and marble, and people most frequently call us about drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Calais Street and across Suffolk. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • No extra charge for your area
  • One visit for most repairs
  • No need to remove anything

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Surfaces we repair

  • Porcelain tiles
  • Ceramic tiles
  • Natural stone & granite
  • Marble
  • Floor and wall tiles

Can I fix it myself?

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.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

FAQs for Calais Street

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

Normally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Can you fill holes left by old fittings?

Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.

Are there extra charges for Calais Street?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Is a repair better than a new one?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Do you cover the whole of Suffolk?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Calais Street. Our prices are the same everywhere.

What we do, step by step

Your technician turns up when we said we would 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.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

How to prepare

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Work for landlords and builders

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
