How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price

Common questions in Earl Stonham
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Frequently, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What areas do you cover?
All of Suffolk, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Landlord and trade work in Earl Stonham
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Repair or replace in Earl Stonham?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
