Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- Something in shot to show the size
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Grimpo, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Grimpo: your questions answered
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Do you work in Grimpo?
We do. We send a technician to Grimpo for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Landlord and trade work in Grimpo
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Shropshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
If you manage property in Grimpo, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a few hours.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- 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.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
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 over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
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. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
