The tile stays where it is, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Our technicians work on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people contact us are chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings.

When a repair is not the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

The process
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 any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
