Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Grub Street
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Common questions in Grub Street
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
How much does tile repair cost in Grub Street?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Natural stone & granite
- Porcelain tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
- Marble
- Ceramic tiles
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes a few hours. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
