  • Drill holes from removed fittings
  • Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
  • Chips from dropped pans and tools
  • Damaged tile edges

Before booking anyone

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • When it can be used again

  • Whether a trained technician does the job

Our hiring checklist

Tile repair in Higher Dinting, done in place

The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. If you are dealing with chips from dropped pans and tools and cracked floor tiles, we can help.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a morning or an afternoon, including clearing up.

  1. We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
  2. The chip, crack or hole is filled.
  3. The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
  4. We recreate the colour and pattern by hand.
  5. Finally we seal it to match the tile.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Related advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Your questions about tile repair in Higher Dinting

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

What tile repair costs

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

  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How easy the damage is to reach

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Higher Dinting. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Send photos for a quote

We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:

  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Work for landlords and builders

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.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Honest limits

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • 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’ll tell you honestly before you book.

  • Natural stone & granite
  • Porcelain tiles
