How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. There is no area surcharge for Fortuneswell. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A picture taken from further back
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your DT5 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Tile repair in Fortuneswell, 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 say so. We work on natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles, and people most often call us about drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow a morning or an afternoon from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
