Tile repair in Holton St Mary, done in place
We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. Our technicians work on marble, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles, and the jobs we see most are damaged tile edges and drill holes from removed fittings.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
