Questions from Fontwell
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
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.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across West Sussex.
How we handle tile repair in Fontwell
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Typical jobs include damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles, across porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.

Can I fix it myself?
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 often lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
