Your questions about tile repair in Carr Vale
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Carr Vale and the rest of Derbyshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Prices start from £95. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
