Tile Repair in Great Bookham
Our repair technicians come to Great Bookham for chip, crack and drill-hole repairs to floor and wall tiles. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Repairs from £95
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Cracked floor tiles
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Tile repair in Great Bookham without replacing anything
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Typical jobs include discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, across ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.

Advice
Questions from Great Bookham
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Common problems we fix in Great Bookham
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
- Damaged tile edges
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Drill holes from removed fittings
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the price covers travel
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole tiled area, we can price the job.
