Your questions about tile repair in Grassthorpe
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Grassthorpe. Our prices are the same everywhere.
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.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Grassthorpe?
Repairs from £95. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
How we handle tile repair in Grassthorpe
The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We work on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people contact us are drill holes from removed fittings and damaged tile edges.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
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. Our tile repair starts from £95. Instead of hourly rates, 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.
