Tile repair at your home in Chatburn
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our technicians work on porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and marble, and common reasons people contact us are drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material and finish
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Common questions in Chatburn
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Do you work in Chatburn?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Chatburn from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Chatburn?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
