About our tile repair in Lightwood
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll tell you. We repair the tile in place, so you don’t need to find a spare. We work on floor and wall tiles, natural stone & granite and marble, and the jobs we see most are drill holes from removed fittings and cracked floor tiles.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard. Take care with heavy items on repaired tiles, and clean with a pH-neutral cleaner.

FAQs for Lightwood
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you work in Lightwood?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Lightwood for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole tiled area and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you cover the entire of Sheffield?
All of Sheffield, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you repair a cracked floor tile without replacing it?
Often, yes, as long as it’s still firmly stuck down.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a morning or an afternoon. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We clean the tile and remove loose fragments.
- We fill the chip, crack or hole.
- We shape the repair flush with the tile.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- We seal the repair to suit the finish of the tile.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

What affects the price in Lightwood
Prices start from £95. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
- What kind of damage it is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

- The postcode, so we can plan the visit

- A picture taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
