DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
About our tile repair in Cowhill
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. We regularly repair natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles, and people most frequently call us about damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlord and trade work in Cowhill

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cowhill as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Cowhill. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
