About our tile repair in Cootham
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. If you’re dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Repairing versus replacing in Cootham
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

FAQs for Cootham
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Do you cover the entire of West Sussex?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Cootham. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
What affects the price in Cootham
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
