About our tile repair in Downgate
We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Typical jobs include chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, on marble, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Downgate and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- 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 photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Porcelain tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Marble

- Floor and wall tiles

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Common questions in Downgate
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
What does tile repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your PL17 postcode.
Repair or replace in Downgate?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
