When a repair isn’t the answer

- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Tile repair at your home in Inskip
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we will say so. We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on marble, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles, and the jobs we see most are cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Inskip, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Inskip questions
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Inskip?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

What else we do in Inskip
Should you replace it?

Rather than charging by the hour, 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.
