Tile repair at your home in Derbyshire Dales

If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. If you are dealing with discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Derbyshire Dales and across Derbyshire. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What affects the price in Derbyshire Dales

Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work
  • The material
  • The type of damage

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send pictures for a quote

You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a morning or an afternoon in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We match the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on

  • Porcelain tiles
  • Ceramic tiles
  • Marble
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Natural stone & granite

What we’re called out for in Derbyshire Dales

Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Cracked floor tiles
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Damaged tile edges

Before you book anyone

  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Will the price change on the day?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

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.
