Tile repair in Hightae, done in place
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on floor and wall tiles, porcelain tiles and natural stone & granite, and common reasons people contact us are damaged tile edges and chips from dropped pans and tools.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a few hours, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your DG11 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
