How we handle tile repair in Hinton
We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. Typical jobs include discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges, in natural stone & granite, floor and wall tiles and porcelain tiles.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Hinton: your questions answered
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Typically, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Natural stone & granite
- Floor and wall tiles
- Marble
- Ceramic tiles
- Porcelain tiles
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
