For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Tile repair in Hillside without replacing anything
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will tell you. We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If you’re dealing with cracked floor tiles and damaged tile edges, we can usually put it right.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a morning or an afternoon, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

When a repair is not the answer

- Whole walls of failing grout
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Quotes from your photos
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Questions from Hillside
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Are there extra charges for Hillside?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you come to Hillside?
We do. We send a technician to Hillside for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
