Tile repair in Higher Bartle without replacing anything
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. Our repair technicians work on natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and marble, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and chips from dropped pans and tools.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Work for landlords and builders

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
What else we do in Higher Bartle
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
