About our tile repair in Cotton End
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 tell you. Our technicians work on marble, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles, and people most often call us about cracked floor tiles 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. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
If you manage property in Cotton End, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
FAQs for Cotton End
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Cotton End. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire tiled area, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Marble
- Natural stone & granite
- Porcelain tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
Email us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your NN4 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
