Tile repair in California without replacing anything
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. We regularly repair natural stone & granite, marble and floor and wall tiles, and people most frequently call us about chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a few hours.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

California questions
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Frequently, yes, if it is not loose.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.

We cover the entire UK, including California and the rest of Norfolk. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
