Repairing versus replacing in Chilton
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Tile repair in Chilton, 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 tell you. We work on floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most frequently call us about cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Chilton: your questions answered
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Chilton?
Repairs from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Generally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
