Tile repair in Cliffe, done in place
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If you are dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Cliffe: your questions answered
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Do you cover the entire of Medway?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Cliffe. Prices do not change with location.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
