Questions from Douglas Water
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Douglas Water included. There is no extra charge for travel.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What does tile repair cost?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Tile repair in Douglas Water without replacing anything
We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and damaged tile edges, we can generally put it right, on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Douglas Water as everywhere else we work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What affects the price in Douglas Water
Repairs from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Douglas Water. What changes the price is:
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Common problems we fix in Douglas Water
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.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Damaged tile edges
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Cracked floor tiles
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
Comparing quotes
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How to care for the finish
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
