About our tile repair in Islip
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- 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 photos and we will say what we think.

Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For a price in Islip, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a tile involves breaking out the old tile, finding a match and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it keeps the original tile. Prices start from £95. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Same prices wherever you are
See our prices page.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
Do you need tile repair in Islip?
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, while walls end up with drill holes from old fittings. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Discontinued tiles you can’t replace
- Damaged tile edges
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Cracked floor tiles
Before you book anyone
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- How your room will be protected
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether the price covers travel
Common questions in Islip
Do you work in Islip?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Islip for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- Next we fill the damage.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Islip use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
