About our tile repair in Kelling
The tile stays where it is, so you don’t need to find a spare. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. If you are dealing with damaged tile edges and cracked floor tiles, we can help, on ceramic tiles, floor and wall tiles and marble alike.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Norfolk. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t 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.

Questions from Kelling
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire tiled area and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Are there extra charges for Kelling?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Do you work in Kelling?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Kelling from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Kelling
For anyone letting property in or around Kelling, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- Finally we seal it to match the tile.
