Tile repair in Dunsley, done in place
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. Typical jobs include chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, on floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
How the visit works
We turn up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your YO21 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Dunsley
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in North Yorkshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Do you need tile repair in Dunsley?
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
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How your room will be protected
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Aftercare advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
