How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Gilmonby. The price reflects:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Tile repair in Gilmonby, done in place
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 tell you. Our technicians work on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and marble, and people most frequently call us about cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

- 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 match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
