Tile repair at your home in Filby

The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Common call-outs are for cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, in ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Filby and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a morning or an afternoon. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Why book with us

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Read our pricing.

  • Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
  • Drill holes from removed fittings

Our hiring checklist

How we price tile repair

Repairs from £95. There is no charge for travel to Filby. The price comes down to:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • What it’s made of, if you know

Most clients in Filby get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

FAQs for Filby

Can pets and children be at home?

On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do you cover Filby?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Filby. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?

Typically, if it is not loose.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Norfolk.

How much does tile repair cost in Filby?

Prices start from £95. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are there extra charges for Filby?

We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Filby

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

For anyone letting property in or around Filby, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will come back with a combined price.

When a repair is not the answer

Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:

  • Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
  • Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
  • Whole walls of failing grout

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we work on

  • Ceramic tiles
  • Marble
  • Natural stone & granite
  • Floor and wall tiles
  • Porcelain tiles

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
