Tile repair at your home in Hanchurch
The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. If you are dealing with cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, we can normally put it right.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Hanchurch, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Common questions in Hanchurch
Do you cover the whole of Stoke-on-Trent?
All of Stoke-on-Trent, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.

For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Hanchurch, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
