Advice
Tile repair in Great Barrow without replacing anything
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Common call-outs are for discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and porcelain tiles.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

About tile repair
Great Barrow: your questions answered
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you work in Great Barrow?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Great Barrow for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
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 normally the cheaper route.
How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
