Tile Repair for Lady homes
Our repair technicians come to Lady for chip, crack and drill-hole repairs to floor and wall tiles. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Repairs from £95
- Damaged tile edges
- Drill holes from removed fittings
Prices and what affects them
Repairs from £95. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
About our tile repair in Lady
We repair the tile in place, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we will say so. We are often asked to fix cracked floor tiles and discontinued tiles you can’t replace, across porcelain tiles, ceramic tiles and natural stone & granite.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile involves breaking out the old tile, tracking down a matching tile and possibly cracking its neighbours. Repairing it leaves the tile where it is. 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 items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Why book with us
- Colour-matched on site
- No need to remove anything
- We leave the room as we found it
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
Read our pricing.
What happens on the day
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It generally takes a few hours, 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.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- The repair is sealed to suit the tile’s finish.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Work for landlords and builders
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
