Landlord and trade work in Filkins
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Filkins use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
How we handle tile repair in Filkins
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 tell you. Whether it’s chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Filkins: your questions answered
What does tile repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your GL7 postcode.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Typically, if it is not loose.
Do you come to Filkins?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Filkins and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire tiled area
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Repairing versus replacing in Filkins
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. We don’t add 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.
