For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Clipston use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Tile repair in Clipston, done in place
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Whether it’s damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can generally put it right.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Clipston questions
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Frequently, yes, if it isn’t loose.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the whole tiled area
If you are in Clipston and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Do you need tile repair in Clipston?
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
- Cracked floor tiles
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Damaged tile edges
Before booking anyone
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether they match the colour on site
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a morning or an afternoon. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
