Tile repair in Knaith without replacing anything
A loose or rocking tile 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 chips from dropped pans and tools, we can help, on floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and ceramic tiles alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. Repairs from £95, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

FAQs for Knaith
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Typically, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
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 pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- What it’s made of, if you know
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, with your DN21 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
