Tile repair in Great Heck without replacing anything
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Our repair technicians work on marble, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped pans and tools and drill holes from removed fittings.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a few hours from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Great Heck, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

How we price tile repair
Prices start from £95. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Great Heck. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Your questions about tile repair in Great Heck
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Great Heck?
