About our tile repair in Glassonby
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Common call-outs are for chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Landlord and trade work in Glassonby
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Glassonby questions
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Frequently, yes, if it is not loose.
What affects the price in Glassonby
Prices start from £95. There’s no charge for travel to Glassonby. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Common problems we fix in Glassonby

- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Cracked floor tiles

How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

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. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?

- Colour-matched on site

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
