How we handle tile repair in Coppice
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. We work on marble, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite, and people most frequently call us about damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your OL8 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What prep work is covered
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
