Tile repair in Gestingthorpe, done in place
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our repair technicians work on marble, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- 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’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Floor and wall tiles
- Porcelain tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Natural stone & granite
- Marble
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Gestingthorpe and the rest of Essex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Normally, if it is not loose.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
