About our tile repair in Guildford
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We’re often asked to fix chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.
Repair or replace in Guildford?

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Guildford questions
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you come to Guildford?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Guildford and the rest of Surrey. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a morning or an afternoon. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- 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.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Upload a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Guildford, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Guildford. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire tiled area, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Guildford
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
