Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. 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.

Questions from Hey
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Usually, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hey
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Signs you need tile repair in Hey
Floor tiles chip when pans, tins and tools are dropped, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Damaged tile edges
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Discontinued tiles you cannot replace
Before you book anyone
- Who will actually do the work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What prep work is covered
- How the colour is matched
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start 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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
