DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
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.
Tile repair in Fowlmere without replacing anything
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Typical jobs include chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across marble, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles.
Somewhere like Fowlmere, older homes may still have their original floors, which are worth keeping. A repair keeps them.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item with your SG8 postcode.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole tiled area and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Replacement in Fowlmere means trades, travel and waste removal, while tile repair is one trip.

How it works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a few hours, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together. In a village or hamlet like Fowlmere, access can be the only tricky part. Once we’re there, the tile repair works exactly as anywhere else.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Ensure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Natural stone & granite
- Ceramic tiles
- Porcelain tiles
- Floor and wall tiles

When to call us in Fowlmere
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.

- Damaged tile edges
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
- Cracked floor tiles

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash

- A photo taken from further back
- Any details about the material
