Tile repair in Little Abington, done in place
A loose or rocking tile may need relaying first, and we’ll say so. The tile stays where it is, so there is no need to hunt for a matching tile. We are often asked to fix discontinued tiles you can’t replace and cracked floor tiles, on floor and wall tiles, ceramic tiles and marble.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book. Avoid dropping heavy items on repaired floor tiles, and use a pH-neutral cleaner.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
If you manage property in Little Abington, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Little Abington questions
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you come to Little Abington?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Little Abington. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I get a price for tile repair in Little Abington?
Prices start from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. 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.
How we price tile repair
Repairs from £95. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Little Abington. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole tiled area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
