Tile Repair for Kingston Gorse homes
We travel to Kingston Gorse for chip, crack and drill-hole repairs to floor and wall tiles. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.

- Damaged tile edges
- Drill holes from removed fittings
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, 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 anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Tile repair in Kingston Gorse, done in place
The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. Our repair technicians work on natural stone & granite, marble and porcelain tiles, and the jobs we see most are discontinued tiles you can’t replace and damaged tile edges.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Take a look at our pricing.
What tile repair costs
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Natural light rather than flash
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
