How we handle tile repair in Godshill
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. We regularly repair ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people contact us are drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Isle of Wight. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Your questions about tile repair in Godshill
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Godshill. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Do you cover Godshill?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Godshill for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Take a look at our pricing.
What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
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.
When to call us in Godshill
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
- Cracked floor tiles
- Damaged tile edges
Questions to ask before booking
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
The process
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire tiled area, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
