Tile repair in Hales without replacing anything
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Typical jobs include damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings, across floor and wall tiles, marble and natural stone & granite.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Hales questions
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you cover the entire of Shropshire?
The whole UK, including all of Shropshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
What we can’t put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- 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.
Surfaces we repair
- Marble
- Natural stone & granite
- Porcelain tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Floor and wall tiles

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Damaged tile edges
- Cracked floor tiles
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
