Questions from Foundry
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Typically, if it isn’t loose.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.

Work for landlords and builders
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.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Foundry. The price reflects:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- Where you are, by postcode
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- 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 photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
