Repairing versus replacing in Downton
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Take a look at our pricing.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire tiled area
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SP5 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Downton
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Common problems we fix in Downton
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Cracked floor tiles
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What aftercare is recommended
- What protection goes down before work starts
What a repair cannot fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- 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 pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Floor and wall tiles
- Natural stone & granite

What happens on the day

- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
