Tile repair in Ilmer, done in place
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. Our repair technicians work on porcelain tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble, and people most often call us about chips from dropped pans and tools and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Your questions about tile repair in Ilmer
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Buckinghamshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Are there extra charges for Ilmer?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Generally, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How much does tile repair cost in Ilmer?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What tile repair costs
Prices start from £95. We charge the same across the UK, including Ilmer. The price reflects:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
What a repair cannot fix
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair

Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
