How we handle tile repair in Hendra
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. We work on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and marble, and common reasons people get in touch are chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repairing versus replacing in Hendra
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a few hours. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

FAQs for Hendra
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
For landlords and businesses
For anyone letting property in or around Hendra, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hendra use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
