Tile repair in Colney Heath, done in place
The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Common call-outs are for chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in porcelain tiles, marble and natural stone & granite.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Colney Heath. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
