Tile repair in Careby, done in place
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 will say so. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people contact us are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PE9 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

FAQs for Careby
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Careby
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
