We repair the tile in place, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. We work on floor and wall tiles, marble and ceramic tiles, and common reasons people get in touch are cracked floor tiles and drill holes from removed fittings.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What affects the price in Leicester Forest West

Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Send photos for a quote

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • A wider photo showing the entire tiled area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
