Tile repair at your home in Hornsea
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our repair technicians work on natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and floor and wall tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Hornsea and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Hornsea questions
How do I get a price for tile repair in Hornsea?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
What about drill holes in tiles?
Yes. We fill drill holes from removed fittings.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Typically, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Can a cracked tile be fixed in place?
Generally, if it isn’t loose.
Are there extra charges for Hornsea?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Porcelain tiles
- Floor and wall tiles

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hornsea as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repairing versus replacing in Hornsea
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What affects the price in Hornsea
Prices start from £95. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole tiled area
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
