Tile repair in Delves Lane, done in place
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you’re dealing with cracked floor tiles and chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help, on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and ceramic tiles alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Questions from Delves Lane
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you cover Delves Lane?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Delves Lane for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
For a price in Delves Lane, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a morning or an afternoon, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the area is dry
Getting a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
