Tile repair at your home in Hoy
We repair the tile in place, so you do not need to find a spare. A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We regularly repair natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles, and common reasons people contact us are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and drill holes from removed fittings.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
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 normally the cheaper route.

Repairing versus replacing in Hoy
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Our tile repair starts from £95. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. We don’t charge extra for travel to Hoy. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A picture taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
