Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?

About our tile repair in Gromford

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 say so. We regularly repair porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles, and people most frequently call us about discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles.

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.

Choosing a repair company

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Everything repaired in place
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

See our pricing.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £95. We do not charge extra for travel to Gromford. The price comes down to:

  • What the surface is made of
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Gromford. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How to get a fixed quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A wider photo showing the whole tiled area

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the tiled area, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. We fill the chip, crack or hole.
  3. We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
  4. The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.

When a repair is not the answer

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
