How we handle tile repair in Gallows Inn
The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We work on porcelain tiles, marble and floor and wall tiles, and people most frequently call us about chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

FAQs for Gallows Inn
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you cover the whole of Derbyshire?
All of Derbyshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
