Tile repair in Evington without replacing anything
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Common call-outs are for cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, across floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Evington. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
FAQs for Evington
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Usually, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
How much does tile repair cost in Evington?
Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
