Repairing versus replacing in Heslington
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

About our tile repair in Heslington
The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We are frequently asked to fix cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and marble.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

When a repair is not the answer
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout

Your questions about tile repair in Heslington
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you quote from photos?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What does tile repair cost?
Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Heslington included. Travel is included in the price.
Is there a call-out fee?

Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Advice
Landlord and trade work in Heslington
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
