Tile repair in Cove, done in place
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help, whatever the material.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

About tile repair
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us
- A fixed quote before booking
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Cove questions
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Cove. Prices don’t change with location.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
What does tile repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Normally, if it isn’t loose.
What we are called out for in Cove
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Cracked floor tiles
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Drill holes from removed fittings
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Floor and wall tiles
- Marble
- Natural stone & granite
- Ceramic tiles
- Porcelain tiles
The process
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
