How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed, with no obligation. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole tiled area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
About our tile repair in Charles
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 tell you. If you are dealing with drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
In a village like Charles, floors in older homes may be original, and those are worth looking after. A repair keeps them.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Signs you need tile repair in Charles
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Cracked floor tiles
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
- Drill holes from removed fittings
We also work for schools, leisure centres and businesses, so if you look after a building such as Brayford Academy, tiled corridors and washrooms can be repaired in place too.
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on. Somewhere like Charles needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. Everything for the tile repair comes with us in one trip.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Charles as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Floor and wall tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Ceramic tiles
- Marble
- Porcelain tiles
Charles questions
Will you travel to Charles?
We do: small places like Charles are covered as standard. Just mention any tricky access.
Do you take on commercial work in Charles?
Yes, and we are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited. We’ll agree timings that suit the building.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you quote from pictures?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Charles.

What else we do in Charles
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Replacement in Charles means trades, travel and waste removal, while a repair is a single visit.
Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why book with us
- Most jobs done in one visit
- No need to remove anything
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Fixed prices from your photos
