Tile repair in Five Ashes, done in place
The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We work on porcelain tiles, marble and natural stone & granite, and people most often call us about chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Five Ashes questions
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Generally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you cover the entire of East Sussex?
All of East Sussex, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours in most cases. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

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. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Five Ashes. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on

What affects the price in Five Ashes
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, with your TN20 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. 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.
