How we handle tile repair in Dunsby
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, we can help, on ceramic tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles alike.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Questions from Dunsby
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we’re called out for in Dunsby
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Cracked floor tiles
- Damaged tile edges
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
Questions to ask before you book
- How the colour is matched
- When it can be used again
- If travel is included in the price
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Dunsby. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
