About our tile repair in Lenton
If a tile moves, it may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. The tile stays where it is, so there’s no need to hunt for a matching tile. We work on natural stone & granite, porcelain tiles and ceramic tiles, and people most often call us about drill holes from removed fittings and discontinued tiles you can’t replace.
We guarantee the work for a year. 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 use a pH-neutral cleaner.

- Loose or hollow tiles that need relaying
- Cracks caused by a moving floor, until the floor is fixed
- Whole walls of failing grout
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

What affects the price in Lenton
Prices start from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the whole tiled area
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Landlord and trade work in Lenton
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What we’re called out for in Lenton
Dropped pans and tools chip floor tiles, and wall tiles get drilled for fittings that are later removed. Movement underneath can also crack tiles.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Drill holes from removed fittings
- Cracked floor tiles
- Chips from dropped pans and tools
- Damaged tile edges

The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a few hours.
- First the tile is cleaned and loose pieces removed.
- Next we fill the damage.
- We level and shape the repair to the tile surface.
- The colour and pattern are recreated by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
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, a professional repair is worth it.

Questions from Lenton
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Can you fill holes left by old fittings?
Yes. Drill holes from old rails and shelves are a common job.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
Why repair rather than replace?
Swapping out a damaged tile means breaking it out, finding a match and risking the tiles around it. A repair leaves the tile where it is. Prices start from £95. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
