Local tile repair for Ecton: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Damaged tile edges
- Drill holes from removed fittings
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
How we handle tile repair in Ecton
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Typical jobs include discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools, on ceramic tiles, marble and porcelain tiles.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
How it works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a few hours, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice
Ecton: your questions answered
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Often, yes, if it isn’t loose.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you work in Ecton?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Ecton and the rest of Northamptonshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Ecton, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.
