A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Tile repair in Hartforth, done in place
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our technicians work on natural stone & granite, marble and porcelain tiles, and common reasons people contact us are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

How it works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a morning or an afternoon. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole tiled area
- Natural light rather than flash
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
