Tile repair in Chelmsford, done in place
We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Common call-outs are for drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles, across ceramic tiles, marble and porcelain tiles.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Chelmsford as everywhere else we work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.
Signs you need tile repair in Chelmsford
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Repair or replace in Chelmsford?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Chelmsford: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Are there extra charges for Chelmsford?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your photos
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What we can’t 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’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Porcelain tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Marble
