Tile repair at your home in Hillway
We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. Common call-outs are for damaged tile edges and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, on natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Hillway and across Isle of Wight. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
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.

When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying

- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Floor and wall tiles
- Marble
- Natural stone & granite
- Ceramic tiles
- Porcelain tiles
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes a few hours for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let us know which floor the room is on

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Upload photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Hillway, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Questions from Hillway
How much does tile repair cost in Hillway?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.
