Tile repair at your home in Horham
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on marble, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people contact us are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges.
Every job is backed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your IP21 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, a professional repair is worth it.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

Questions from Horham
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Do you cover the entire of Suffolk?
We cover the whole UK, including Horham and the rest of Suffolk. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
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.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a few hours, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- The chip, crack or hole is filled.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
