Whether it’s cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, we can help, on natural stone & granite, ceramic tiles and floor and wall tiles alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Killerby and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout

Should you replace it?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and risking the tiles around it. A repair keeps the original tile. Our tile repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t 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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
What does tile repair cost?
Prices start from £95. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The colour and finish to match
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire tiled area
- Where you are, by postcode
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Killerby, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
If you manage property in Killerby, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It generally takes a morning or an afternoon, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We start by cleaning the tile and clearing loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- The repair is levelled to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
