Advice
Tile repair at your home in High Cross Bank
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 tell you. We work on porcelain tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people contact us are damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- The material
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Just ensure we can see:
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most customers in High Cross Bank get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Why repair rather than replace?

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
