Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
How we handle tile repair in Flowton
We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Typical jobs include damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, in marble, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout

Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
