How we handle tile repair in Cockshutt
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Typical jobs include damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and marble.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Cockshutt and across Shropshire. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

- 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

Cockshutt questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
