Tile repair in Greenhill, done in place
We repair the tile in place, 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. Our repair technicians work on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles, and people most often call us about drill holes from removed fittings and chips from dropped pans and tools.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, 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.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For a price in Greenhill, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Greenhill as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Greenhill questions
Do you cover Greenhill?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Greenhill for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
What we’re called out for in Greenhill
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Cracks can also come from movement in the floor below.
Look out for these signs:
- Damaged tile edges
- Cracked floor tiles
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
Questions to ask before booking
- Aftercare advice
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What happens if they find more damage

When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a morning or an afternoon. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
