Tile repair at your home in Chilton Foliat
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair marble, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles, and people most frequently call us about discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, tidy-up included.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
