Tile repair in Cold Norton, done in place
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We regularly repair floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and marble, and common reasons people get in touch are damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Cold Norton as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Cold Norton questions
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Generally, if it isn’t loose.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Cold Norton?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Is there a guarantee?
