How we handle tile repair in Faenor
We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. If you’re dealing with damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What else we do in Faenor
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Repair or replace in Faenor?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. 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.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- What it’s made of, if you know
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SY23 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Your questions about tile repair in Faenor
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you work in Faenor?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Faenor from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Are there extra charges for Faenor?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
