Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

About our tile repair in High Salvington
We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Our technicians work on ceramic tiles, natural stone & granite and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in High Salvington and across West Sussex. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot 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 pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Porcelain tiles
- Floor and wall tiles
- Ceramic tiles
- Natural stone & granite

What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in High Salvington
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in High Salvington as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, 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.

Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Do I need to be at home?
