Tile repair in Gaulby without replacing anything
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Whether it’s damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a few hours, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
